or unpack~ for some serious samplewise-dsp action. (also from zexy)

it turns every sample into a control message... it's a little cpu
intensive so don't use it unless you really need it... 

but it can be a lot easier than writing an external :)

see the recent posts in the archive for examples of how to use it, or look
at the zexy help files for unpack~ + drip/unfold/repack.
