I was looking at NodeProxy roles documentation but the examples for \set and \pset throw an error.
s.boot;
a = NodeProxy(s);
a[0] = { |freq = 440, dt=0.1, rate=2| Ringz.ar(Impulse.ar(rate * [1, 1.2]), freq, dt)*0.1 };
a.play;
(
a[1] = \pset -> Pbind(
\dur, Prand([1, 0.5], inf),
\freq, Pwhite(200.0, 1000, inf).round(30),
\rate, Pdup(4, Prand([1, 3, 6, 10], inf)),
\dt, Pwhite(0.01, 0.1, inf) + 1
)
);
following is the post output when evaluating the preceding code:
-> NodeProxy.audio(localhost, 2)

Is this a bug or is the help file obsolete? Any pointers will be very much appreciated.
I’m using SC 3.13.0 on Arch Linux
EDIT: I tried with PbindProxy as source of the NodeProxy and it works:
s.boot;
p = ProxySpace.push(s);
~snd = PbindProxy.new;
~snd.play;
~snd[1] = \set -> Pbind(\instrument, \pulse, \degree, Prand((..7), inf), \dur, 1/4);
