[PD] counting how many times an audio file is looped

[Simon Iten]

You only need vline or phasor, not both. The handling is a bit different
though. Vline works via messages and creates arbitrary ramps. E.g. From 0
to 44100 in 1000 ms. Phasor just ramps from 0 to 1 in a time you supply as
a frequency. You then multiply it's output and feed the tabread
