as far as i could follow your conversation, readsf~ seams to be a
threaded soundfiler.

but: doesn't readsf~ play back and soundfiler write sounds into
buffers? i don't know much about the source code of these two objects,
but to me they seem to be quite different objects.
...well, i hope that i am wrong :-)

burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across
the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and
everybody goes "Awww!"
