I've made a drum machine with sequencer, very similar to reasons redrum, but would like to have a simple pitch control via a knob. Im not to sure how to achieve this, so if someone could point me in the right direction that would be good. Im currently triggering samples via sfplay object, also is there another method of triggering samples because sfplay must cut a sample short in order to retrigger before the previous sample is complete.

yes you can use buffers and the groove~ object. sfplay~ isnt the most efficient object to use for triggering samples as if you are playing something with speed it can fail quite a bit ie there may be no sound or it may say the sample doesnt exist etc. it will say it in the max window.

good stuff thanks. Any ideas about changing pitch of sample.

A couple of ideas to try: change the playback speed, or run it

a little late for the reply but hey you might still be searching. Here is what I do. Groove~ like previously mentioned, which you can pitch shft w. a varying float in in the sig~. For triggering, try the startloop message.

hope this help if you had not already figured it out .
