Just wondering if anybody might be able to help me with a mathematical problem with using a physical slider as an interface.

The slider gives an output of -1 and +1. I then want to stretch those numbers to get a wider range of values say, -50 & + 50.
What is the best way to do this? My maths was never that great...

Any help greatly appreciated

Well if you have a slider that is sending values from -1 to +1, you should just be able to add a multiplication object

• after the value to get a range from -50 to +50.

yes, i just realised after posting, had a bit of a brain fade i think.
thanks.
reason i asked was that last week we tried and it didn't work... got only + or - values, but never both. not sure why.

I can definitely relate. This week in particular I've had mathematical brain farts LIKE YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE.
