hi

here there are a couple of problems i have been tryng to solve with no luck.

first : i have a patch that samples and manipulates the sound coming from a guy playing drumms. I need to calculate the tempo of the drumm player. i have been trying to find some external to do this. but coulnt find any. could anyone point me to some solution for this?

second problem. i need to pass the path of a sound file in the harddrive to pd via flashserver. PD seems to have problems with spaces on file and folder names. if i send C:\my sounds\mysound.wav the whole things gets transformed into something like C:myoundsmysound.wav if i prepend "symbol" to the path then PD thinks its a list with several items being the spaces the separation. i have tried several tricks but none works.

thanks
