I'm creating a looper and I'm currently using 4 [buffer~ 30000 2] objects for the 4 tracks. It seems that if I try to record into one too quickly after opening my device, I get problems. Would i be correct in assuming that the buffer~ objects need a little time to initialize? It might only be an issue because i'm testing it (during normal usage one might not be as likely to click the record button as impatiently as I am now), but is there a way to know when the buffer~s are ready to go so i could have a real professional-looking "buffers initializing" dialog box appear or something like that, to avoid any possible mishaps?

Buffer~ needs time to initialize?
