[PD] simultaneous read and write in tables

[matthew jones]

But reading from the same point you are writing to (after having written) 
would be equivalent to just connecting it up straight with cables (ie. no 
delay)...?
Maybe I've got the wrong end of the stick here.  If tabwrite~ is 5 samples 
BEHIND tabread~ then this would give you a delay of (TABLENGTH-4) samples, I 
think.  But for a loopsampler you would not need to use a table to output 
the CURRENT audio, only the repetitions, so there should be no issue with 
reading the table WHEN it is being written to.  Then again if I have 
misunderstood your problem, can you provide some more info on what you need 
to do?
Cheers,

Matt
