Ahh, The strength of arrays is that you can specify a specific location. So, to play audio that's stored in an array you usually have to feed it either changing position data from [line~] or [phasor~] which, as it reads each point at your sample rate (usually 44100 points a second) and feeds this data to your speakers you hear the stored audio, of course changed by the speed of the position line you're putting into it.

You could build your own delay unit using tabread~ and tabwrite~ but if you're just starting out, I'd stick to [delread~] and [delwrite~]. Have you managed to do this?

I'm not quite sure what you mean, simply using [tabread~] and 
[tabwrite~] where I've used [delread~] and [delwrite~]? I wasn't aware 
you could specify a location in an array, I thought you just read it 
all? 
Sorry, I'm pretty new to using delay lines and arrays in Pd 
Thanks
