thanks for the many tipps!
In the long run you could save quite some CPU cycles by using the more traditional clock-based sequencing where possible.
in the past (reaktor) i have used the songposition most of the time, and made everything counter-based. (always perfectly in sync, but harder to manually re-sync). since i was happy that my first pd patch (a 'rockafella'-based loop-player) was running pretty well (and in sync) with this pahsor based approach, i continued to use this method. i agree that it is a waste of cpu. maybe id would be a good idea to use only one phasor (or a vline based 'phasor') to drive a counter and than use this counter for the different sequencers. at least when it is not neccessary to sync the different modules independently. (groovebox2...)
bis denn! martin
