hey folks,

i'm tryng to build a patch that would allow me to loop and control realtime recorded audio samples so that i could port a .

i've built the most part of it but now i'm having problems syncing the samples.

in the original solution (developed in C++), i sync them by keeping track of the position the main loop is when secondary loops are trigged to record. so everytime the main loop reaches that position, the system verifies if the loop has finished playing and play it again in the right timing (if necessary).

any idea of how to do the same in pd vanilla?

thanks in advance!
cheers,

ps: i tried to resize the audio samples to multiples based on this marvelous code made by elboulangero but it doesn't give me the same results of the original approach. would i be doing something wrong? the source is attached.

video is really cool! I love it!

i'd suggest that you use a fast metro [metro 1] attached to a simple counter [f ]x[+ 44.1] (outlet of the float goes to left inlet of the plus, and then outlet of the plus to right inlet of the float)

and then trigger a [vline~], like this:

[metro 1]
|
[f ]x[+ 44.1]
|
|
|
[t f f]
| |
| [+ 44.1]
| |
[pack]
|
[$1, $2 1(
|
[vline~]

what that does, is give you an updated position every millisecond, which should be enough accuracy for your needs.

if you just run another outlet from the [t f f]. (ie, make it [t f f f]), then that's your current position in samples.

the reason i used 44.1 in my example is because 44100hz sample rate, divided by 1000ms. of course you could adjust that to your own preferred rate.

thank you very much for the feedback, mod! i followed your sugestion and it worked fine! the new patch (built from scratch) is attached.

my problem now is latency in android plataform. hope i could be able to minimize it... has anyone here any hint about how to do it?
