I've had this problem with delays and tabreads both in different versions of Pd. One thing that has been suggested in the past is to add a [netreceive] object in your patch (to simulate the timing of the audio thread with the GUI, I suppose).

best! Derek

Hi all,

this small patch works perfectly when pd is running with his gui but does not work at all, no more delay and a distorded beep when pd is running without gui in vanilla pd 0.41-4, 0.42-2 and pd-extended 0.41-4 but works perfectly with and without gui in Pd-extended 0.40-3.

Do I do something wrong?

All the best. Joël
