Error when using a Constant speed as a CHOP Reference

[FREESIA23]

I’m very new to TD, so bear with me~!

When I drop a Constant speed on to a Top Noise operator as a z CHOP Reference, it says Error: TypeError: float() argument must be a string or a number not ‘Nonetype’

Any tips?

I’m using PPPANIK’S TD tutorial and this relates to the 10min-11min mark (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWusA464neI&ab_channel=PPPANIK)

Thanks

Hi,
Hard to tell without the example file, but from what you said, you should not drop the constant chop but the constant value itself. Make the chop active and drag and drop the value.

Hi Gallo,

Thank you so much for responding. I believe I am making it active and then dragging and dropping the moving number. I’ve uploaded the project file here if that helps at all.

Hi,

Ok so the issue is that you put your value reference in the constant chop as the name and not in the value field. Just fix back the name in your constant chop and put your code in the value field. Then export again the reference to the top and you should be good.

Note : you should not export the value itself, but the reference to the value.
