TYPE: CHOP
TITLE: Constant CHOP

This generator CHOP allows you to create up to 40 new channels, each of which 
can be named and assigned a different value. To create a channel, enter a
channel name in the left parameter in the 0, 10, 20 or 30 pages, then adjust
the value to its right.

The interval is one sample by default (at index 0). An interval range can be 
optionally set in the Channel page.

The optional first input allows the automatic setup of the Constant CHOP by
taking a snapshot of the input's channels. In this mode, up to 40 of the
input's channels are sampled at the current frame and a channel for each
sample is created. This allows easy editing of snapshot values. 

Snapshot values do not update if the input changes; the "Snapshot Input"
button captures and stores the values. Snapping will also remove any
channels previously defined. This allows you to get channels from another
CHOP and adjust them with sliders in the Constant CHOP.

The second input can be used to add offsets to the constant values. When the
second input (Active) is greater than zero, any change to the first input
is added to the output of the CHOP.

There are no local variables.

Parameters
0-9
    Channel 0-9 - User-defined channels 0 to 9 /value0-9
10-19
    Channel 10-19 - User-defined channels 10 to 19 /value10-19
20-29
    Channel 20-29 - User-defined channels 20 to 29 /value20-29
10-19
    Channel 30-39 - User-defined channels 30 to 39 /value30-39
Snap
    Snapshot Input       - Click this button to capture the 
			   input channels' values at the 
			   current frame.
    First Channel        - Specify the starting channel index    /first
			   to snap from.
    Active Needs Current - When on, the second input, the Active 
			   input only has an effect if this CHOP is
			   the current CHOP. When off, it doesn't
			   matter if this is the current CHOP. Used
			   by the Channel Editor when editing keyframes.
Channel
    Single Frame    - Only create one-sample channels,
		      at the Start position.
    Start           - The start position of the CHOP.       /start
    End             - The end position of the CHOP.         /end
    Sample Rate     - The sample rate of the CHOP.          /rate
    Extend Left     - The left extend condition (before
		      the CHOP's start).
    Extend Right    - The right extend condition (after
		      the CHOP's end).
    Default Value   - The value to use for the              /defval
