I just botched my comment. Everything is working just as expected there except my commenting ability.<br><br>So, it appears that I do understand what is going on. My issue then is simply that I cannot call .clear() appropriately (.duration was my backup which also failed).

I'm sure I'm missing something. Could you point me in the<br>> > right direction?<br>> <br>> I think here might be the reasoning error; the "loop" in loopRec <br>> refers to looping in time, not to a signal feedback loop (that may <br>> also exist). loopRec means that as the recording position reaches the<br>> end of the buffer it'll "loop" back to the start.<br>> <br>> Maybe I am reading you wrong, but so far that seems to be it.<br>> <br>> > Also, if I call .clear() or call .duration, I get a realtime error from Jack<br>> > and it shuts down. I'm sure I'm missing something.
