[PD] Looping samples with tabread4~

[Matteo Sisti Sette]

Yes, I did once exactly what you describe, and it works.

(well to be precise I didn't do *exactly* what you described: I snapshotted 
the vline~ output to get the current position, so it worked only within 
block accuracy; however, I understand your solution and it should definitely 
work with (sub)sample accuracy)


However, in this approach the pitch input is control, i.e. number, it is not 
a signal.
This doesn't allow for a signal input pitch.

You can "change the pitch at any time" but you cannot have an oscillator 
*continuously* regulating the pitch for instance.

theoretically, this approach should also work well with changing the
pitch while playing, if i am not totally mistaken. i never tried to
implement it myself yet, but since you send a message to [vline~] you
also know at any time, where [vline~] actually is. the idea is to
measure the time between the inital message to [vline~] and the moment,
where you want to change the pitch. with the timevalue and the values
from the initial message you could calculate [vline~] actual position.
with taking into account [vline~]'s actual position and the new pitch,
you could generate a new message for [vline~]. like that, it should be
possible to change the pitch at any time with (sub-?)sample accuracy and
without having jumps in the playback.
