Hey, thank you so much for your reply! <div><br></div><div>For some reason the patch(es) does not work at this point because I don&#39;t have the objects range &amp; arraysize. I assumed that you&#39;re using Pd-Extended, which made me realize I might have another problem... I still don&#39;t have the objects, and this is what it says in the log: </div>
<div><br></div><div><div>[import] $Revision: 1.2 $</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">	</span>[import] is still in development, the interface could change!</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">	</span>compiled against Pd version 0.41.4</div>
<div><br></div><div>instead of all the loading of externals on start. Is it difficult to make the same patch in Pd vanilla? I mainly work in Pd vanilla, and I think I should stick with it and try to figure out what&#39;s wrong with my Pd-extended later...</div>
<div><br></div><div>Well, anyway, I tried to decipher your code, feel free to correct me if I&#39;m wrong. I see your way of starting &amp; controlling sequence, which is very clever and nice. I don&#39;t know what [range] does.It seems that [makefilename] simply turns the number/symbols into symbols for use of a series of filenames, and I see that the abstractions are receiving bangs as the filenames are made and sent, also very nice, but I don&#39;t understand the why the [sel 1] as there&#39;s error: inlet: expected &#39;&#39; but got &#39;bang&#39;. I get a feeling that [arraysize sample] should just tell me what is the arraysize (or sample number) for the array &quot;sample&quot;, but the expr tells me that it&#39;s probably a variable number. </div>
<div><br></div>Much thanks again! I&#39;ll just keep trying... </div><div>- Joey</div><div><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jun 6, 2010 at 1:58 PM, Andrew Faraday <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:jbturgid@hotmail.com">jbturgid@hotmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

Hey there<div><br></div><div>You&#39;ve got me thinking... and I&#39;ve come up with this patch (attached) to do something similar. Hope it helps.</div><div><br></div><div>Please note, you need the file abstrac.pd for this to work.</div>

Firstly, I&#39;d use an abstraction, see if you can give it arguments to control playback speed. (either relative into a [phasor~], with a timed pitch envelope or absolute via a list), and either a global sent telling all of this abstraction to start or some form of random distribution at high speed triggering a clap each time. <div>
<br></div><div>Remember: </div><div>most sends (such as [s foobar]) will be received by any open patch.</div><div>$0 sends (say [s $0-foobar]) will only work within a single abstraction, this helps if you have multiple examples of the same abstraction open and wish to use sends inside them. </div>
<div><br></div><div>As for someone having done it before... They probably have, but it&#39;s always more satisfying to make your own patch, also it usually turns out unique to you. That&#39;s one of the great things about PD, sound and vision of your very own.</div>

Subject: [PD] Recreating sampled sound with variations<br><br>I would like to use a number box, or a similar control, to control the number of playback. For example, I would like to increase the number of times that a sample is being played, with separate control over the sampled sound, such as to produce a crowd of applause with a single sampled clapping sound. <div>

<br></div><div>I&#39;ve thought about objects such as route~, sel~, send &amp; receive, qlist, using sub-patches or abstractions, but I still can&#39;t quite figure out the signal flow and a nice way to create a patch that reaches my objective. I understand that I want some control over the pitch, &quot;playback speed&quot; or chunk size, but I&#39;m quite lost as to how I can lay down the foundation (elements) of the patch and a way to control this type of multi-voice situation. </div>

<div><br></div><div>I also have a feeling someone must have done it already... but I can&#39;t seem to find it!
