Thanks I will try recording to a table. The purpose of this eventually is to use sigmund~ to batch analyse audio files so I need the standard DSP chain to work

Hi Oli
The problem is not that [delay] quantizes messages on block boundaries, but [writesf~] does so ([delay] is totally precise). If you want exactly 1s wav files, you need to replace [writesf~]. You could create a table with the desired length and use [tabwrite~] to record to that table. Then you could send a 'write' message to [soundfiler] to export table content to a wav file. The resulting wav file should have the exact length of the table (I haven't tested that, though).
Furthermore... Are you really interested in capturing output from e.g. [phasor~] as in the example (ad possibly other dsp objects), or simply creating a 1 second ramp? I the latter case you don't necessarily need that phasor~ and could just use a table and soundfiler as Roman suggested.

Hi,
I'm experimenting with the -batch option. I would like to be able to process wave files and they should end up exactly the same length in terms of samples as the original file.
Here is a test patch which writes a ramp which should last 44100 samples. I am launching it like this:
/Applications/Pd-0.45-4.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd -batch -nomidi -send "file test" /Users/oli/batchtest.pd
The resulting file is 44096 samples long. I realise this is because the message rate delay which stops the recording is quantized to block boundaries (64*689 = 44096)
Is there any way i can stop the recording after exactly 44100 samples have elapsed?
thanks
oli
