Change volume of note continuously

[pehrlich]

I have a synthDef, on which is called noteOn and noteOff. I am also hackishly changing the volume of the gen, by calling .set({mul: value}).

I notice that this causes a disruption, which is very obvious when changed at a fast rate. E.g., if I update the mul every 16ms, then it is more clicks and white noise than a continuous function.

Is there a more correct way of doing this?

Thanks!

Edit, here's a good way to test, where list[0] is a synthGen:

   i = 0; setInterval(function(){ 
  i++; list[0].set({mul: 1000000 * 0.5 * (Math.sin(i / Math.PI / 2) )  })
 }, 16)
