Hi Claude,
sorry that it took so long to test and to answer to your suggestion.
I tried it with [readsf~] and [tabwrite~] plus [switch~ 64 1 32] and it works perfectly.
It's about 40% of the speed (upsampling 32x)compared to[soundfiler] and has absolutely no dropouts or any other artifacts (so far).
The only annoying thing is that it may take forever setting all the table sizes (around 3000 samples) manually.
I tried [wavinfo] but it didn't really work. It may be better anyway not to change anything about the tablesizes while loading in background.
However it will spped up loading time from currently 1 minute 45 sec to about 30-40 seconds. That's absolutely great.
Thanks for the hint!
Ingo

Hi,
does anybody know if there is an alternative method to soundfiler in
order to load wave files into tables.
[readsf~] and [tabwrite~] in an upsampled subpatch (with [block~]).
No -resize support there though, and it's only "N times" faster than
real time, not "as fast as possible without dropouts".
