When allocating memory with getbytes how do you refer to it as an array? I can't seem to set values in the allocated memory using *(mybytes+index) like normal.

as long as you only have one-dimensional arrays, the 2 are exactly the same: a linear memory allocation. "array" is only how you chose to think of it.

btw, "normal" is something very subjective, but i would access array elements as: "mbytes[index]" rather than "*(mbytes+index)"

...

"x->win=getbytes(x->winsize*sizeof(t_sample));" do you still refer to them in the same way as arrays e.g. *(win+10) to get value at index 10?

don't get me wrong, but a good book on C would probably help :-)
