Alternatively, just specify "-maxsize 1000000000" (or whatever) in the "read" message. Oops, still no usable help window for read/writesf... I've got that in the pipe for the next release.

Hi Jay, the first thing that i usually change after downloading PD is this array size limit. I don't know why it's there at all. If you have the possibility to compile PD for your platform simply change src/d_soundfile.c line 830 (in version 0.36) to a value of your choice. For your wav file: Don't forget that a 16 bit file will be blown up to double size (32 bits) and will then take up 304 MB. It depends on your RAM size if that can be handled. Don't use a graphical array! The graphical representation can't handle this large arrays properly. It depends on what you want to do, but it may be better to use soundfiler and load in only a portion of the file at a time.
best greetings, Thomas

hi list.
i got a 152Mb wav file (16bit 44100Hz) to be processed by pd array. it seems 4E6 array size only is able to handle about 5%~10% of the file. and pd jams when i try to lift the x-range of the array to something like 8E7. is there a limit of the array here?
thanks
Jay
