[PD] best way to play (long) 24-channel wav file in pd

[Matthias Blau]

Hello list,

I want to play a 24-channel wav file in pd. It is rather big (several 
minutes), such that pre-loading the data into tables will probably not 
work (have to check that though). I tried zexy/sfplay but it seems to be 
limited to 8 channels.

In the final application, we want to use a set of 48 FIR filters (each 
512 taps long) to downmix the 24 channels to 2 outputs.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Matthias
