modify patch so looping waveform displays properly?
Posted: Wed Jun 24, 2009 7:41 pm
I am using a modified version of the Ms Pinky AO patch to play back short audio loops.
Everything is working more or less as expected. I select "file loop" from the drop down and the file loops properly.
However, the position indicator in the waveform display does not seem to be looping. It scrolls "off-screen" after the first loop, and then disappears. If I re-trigger the loop by sending a "cue 0" message, then the position indicator does what I would expect - it jumps back to the beginning of the file. I would like to duplicate this functionality while the file just plays back in loop mode.
I tracked down the "update_indicator" message that's being sent out to the waveform display, but I'm not quite sure how to modify the patch to get the desired results.
I'm a fairly savvy Max user, so if you could just point me in the right direction I can probably run with it.
Thanks
