[PD] Playing soundfile via array

Fri Mar 19 17:23:34 CET 2010

Hi Lorenzo,

thanks for your fast reply ! :)
And thanks for the testpatch!!! :)))

...again the same behaviour,,,
PD says: "succesfully loaded" and the array remains empty.

Would it be possible to send me a short wav file via private
email from which you know, that it works? That way I could decide
whether my sound file is to blame or my pd-extended installation
has a porblem...

By the way: The "boxes" you used in the both patches (sorry...neither
English is my mothers tongue nor am I a pd-guru...I am the opposite of
it ;) ) ...are they contents of pd-vanilla or extension which I only
will find in pd-extended???

Thanks a lot in advance! :)
Have a nice weekend!
Best regards,
Meino
