Well, if you use [tabread4~] or any of the many other Pd objects that use the same broken interpolation algorithm (copy/paste programming), you get horrible noise. If you use [tabread4] to interpolate graphical parameters for animations, the discontinuities in the derivatives are really obvious.

See attached patch - it would be interesting to see if a Max/MSP port of this patch exhibits the same problem.

well, the cos~ object does not internally use a 4 points interpolation.
see code : *out++ = f1 + frac * (f2 - f1);
it's a 2 points linear interpolation.



nusmuk audio tabread4c~ uses the correct interpolation algorithm, correct me if I'm wrong.
i don't think there is a correct interpolation algorythm.
I heard that software like reaktor use very diferent algorythm, with lot's more 
points, in order to have a band limited interpolation.
