This is something that I would be interested in seeing. It is sad that the WIKI won't allow uploading of archives, as that would make downloading the files much simpler, as you won't have to "Copy and Paste" everything into a new file. I look forward to checking out ChucKML. Mike On 2/27/06, Nelson Ferraz wrote:

I wrote ChucKML to solve this kind of problem: it reads a xml file describing which files should be played and when; and prints ChucK source code to perform that.

<chuckml> <wave src="wav/wave.wav" repeat_every="9::second"/> <wave src="wav/beat1.wav" start_after="3::second" repeat_every="3::second"/> <wave src="wav/beat2.wav" start_after="3::second" repeat_every="3::second"/> </chuckml>

I couldn't upload the tgz file to the wiki, but I'll post the source code there. _______________________________________________ chuck-users mailing list chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/mailman/listinfo/chuck-users

Try the WaveLoop (STK) class- it's built with a wavetable oscillator in mind, but will play a file of arbitrary length. http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/program/ugen_full.html#WaveLoop Adam Tindale wrote:

Hi,

This is part of the wonder of ChucK, you can define this yourself. Most often .pos is given the 0 argument to start from the beginning of the file. You can give it any int that will refer to an index in your sample.

If you know the startpoint and endpoint of the looping for each file then you can put in a function like this and then call it for every instance of the sample. Then you can expand this to respond to noteons and noteoffs and all those other musical things.

I hope this answers your question.

--art

fun void playsample(int startpoint, int endpoint, string filename){ sndbuf s => dac;

filename => s.read;

0 => s.pos;

endpoint::samp => now;

while(true){ startpoint => s.pos; (endpoint - startpoint)::samp => now; } }

Hello all,

I was wondering if there is a ugen that will handle arbitrary looping points? I have some samples for various instruments (ie piano, mellotron strings, etc), and would like to hook them up in ChucK. Basically, if the sndbuf ugen is the starting point for this, then do I need to write my own "looping" function to ensure that it gets back to the proper points within the sample.

Or has someone already implemented this functionality and would be interested in "sharing"?

Thanks,

Mike _______________________________________________ chuck-users mailing list chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/mailman/listinfo/chuck-users

Thanks, Adam, this is a good start. I do have all the looping points, and was wondering how this would look. I was "afraid" that I would have to call this every sample, but from the looks of it, that may not be the case. Just have to account for any changes in frequency, as I am sure that the time for each sample is based on using the sample data at pitch for the file. Mike On 2/27/06, Adam Tindale wrote:
