Mathieu, just out of interest, what are the [phasor~] s used for?

[phasor~] can be thought of as a cycling counter. It counts up to 1 and then instead of giving a 1 it drops to 0 and starts again. This can be used to loop through a recorded sound in a table.

In the case of a table-based delay line, you have to be continually writing in the table. In the case of a constant delay, this means that each sample will be read only (and exactly) once before it is replaced by something newer, and this means that the frequencies of the two phasors will be the same, but their phases will be different.

You can also replace two phasors with just one if you add a [+~] and a [wrap~]. That's especially useful in your case.
