Do you really have to use MP3? I think this might be easier to do with uncompressed WAV.

Subject: [PD] large audio files

Hey Guys

I've had a vague Idea (which I find is often the best kind) for something to do with pure data. 

Basically, I want it to randomly select a clip from a long MP3 (just under an hour long) and play back, preferably with some speed manipulation. Although I'm not sure about how to do with with a large file in pure data. I suppose the trick might be to pull a minute or so whole-sale from the file and then manipulate the playback from an array. But really don't know where to start, with the possible exception of [readanySF~] to actually play a long file. 

any help?

Cheers

Andrew
