Greetings All
I'm trying to count how may times an audio file is looped then cause it to stop after say 6 loops.
- I plan on using the "select" object to compare the sample size (22050) to
where the playing wav file is located 2) create a bang into "cup" object from the "select" object, this will count the number of loops. 3) Use another "select" object to stop when it reaches 6
The problem I'm having is trying to compare the sample size to where the playing wav file is currently located. I can get the sample size using the "wavinfo" object but how do I get the current location of the playing wav file. (I tried using the "metro 50" object with the "snapshot~" object) but the numbers don't seem be matching up
Is there another way I should be doing this
Thanks
Hi Rick
I think you should use [vline~] to feed [tabread4~]. As long as you get the number of samples up front with wavinfo, like you mentioned, you can just schedule those 6 loops to play with vline~ (no need to count and stop the loop), and you always know what sample is playing, because it's the value of the vline~ output.
You may also want another vline~ to fade-in and fade-out.
