[PD] Re : connecting a samphold and a phasor together

Thank you, I just tried the loop~ object and it works very well for what I'm doing (a looping sampler which allows to change the offset and the size of the repeated segment without transposing it... rather simple stuff I suppose but fun to work on when learning!). One more question came up to my mind when trying the loop~ object : it is recommended under certain circonstances to add 3 samples to an array to allow a "better playback" (or something like that) when building a sampler. Anyone can explain me why and when it is necessary to add those 3 samples?

I hope I'm not spaming this list with obvious, newbie questions! Thanks in advance.

Benoît

There's also the loop~ object (in pd/extra) which I had to write for exactly
this reason.  But I doubt it's general enough for every possible purpose :)
