Hi all!

New to the forum and PD. Been reading trafic on list and forum and turotials to understand the zen of pd. Info is a bit scattered (I think I'll wirte a few tutorial files as I am learning the software --> sorda from noob2 noob stuff I am still tinkering with sample playback (I am not really a composer, so PD is more of an installation tool for me)

Wanted to have a sample loop. My thinking on the subject (after looking at the simplesampler posted here by hardoff) is to feed the size of the array containing the sample to metro object. Here's were I get a wierd behavior from soundfiler object.

In the example file, soundfiler outputs the size of the array. As soon as I put it in my own patch I get a + sign and that's it.

I wrote a simple test patch (included) to demo this behavior. If someone could suggest what to do I would appreciate it. A bit stuck right now

The numberbox is too small to display the number it is sent to (in this case the samplelength from the soundfiler). However the value stored in it is correct (and therefore usable). Just right-click it and set its width property to something larger.

Cheers,
