I was browsing through various documentation but did not find an answer for this.

Is there a way to load a .txt file into a data or buffer in gen. In particular i want to work with long integer series . Buffer~ does not seem to support .txt .. I tried stuff like importing .txt to an ftm fmat then diving through by e.g. 1000000 exporting as aiff , read it to buffer~ and multiplying up again in gen , but i get really huge deviations from original values.

Any one knows any tricks, maybe through other file types or software??

data-to-gen

The values from the text file can be dumped into a buffer using peek. The gen~ buffer can refer to that.

would you maybe specify how you are doing the 'dumping' part,, still only get the files open with the ftm fmats

hi thanx very much for looking into it
