Hi Jaime,

Thanks for the suggestion, and for further clarifying (in my mind) what I'll need. I think readsf~ won't do because of the "open before play" requirement -- it will introduce latency and prevent re-triggering, if I'm not mistaken.

I guess it's going to be a matter of loading as many tables in memory as I can get away with and using tabread4~ with a phasor.


Thanks for writing,

Phil

Hi Phil,

if they'll always play from the beginning and the only control you
need is amplitude, then I would try readsf~.

OK, this was probably too broad a way to pose this. Let me try it this way:
I'm not concerned with looping, re-sampling or sample-rate changing. I
simply want a low-latency trigger of a sound file from an incoming event.
The file(s) may, however, be quite large.

So, is a phasor-scanned [tabread4~] the best way to go about this? Will
memory management become an issue if I have 44 or 88 of these large samples
in memory at once?

thanks,

Phil

Hello collective PD mind,

Despite having worked with PD for years, I've never used it as a sample
player. I have a project coming up where I will need to build a bank of
MIDI-keyboard-triggered samples to play in real-time, with velocity
sensitivity and one sample per key. Rather than reinvent the wheel, is there
something someone has already done along this line? If not, can anyone give
me a basic outline from which I can start?
