[PD] So [bang~] can't "bang" in less than 64 blocksize, huh?

> print~ will always start printing from the beginning of a 64 block period


*The same here. Perhaps it helps to see print~ as the object that givesyou
one audio block as numbers rather than an 'audio rate print' thatdoes
things faster than message timing.*

I also meant that it can't help but start from a 64 block boundary, even if
the block is less, such as "1", but I think that this is because the bang
button is always aligned to a 64 block tick, as I pointed out later, so I
may have to run other tests to see how [print~] actually behaves with
different size blocks.

cheers
