I am fighting with for few hours already & also searched to forums, but I couldn't find an answer to exact this issue.

I am used to DAW's +12/-12 half-tone transposition of samples. It is indeed more musical than some random pitches.

I'd like to do that with my live sampling improvisation patch with sfplay's speed, but I don't know how to convert the speed into half-tones. I think I will find an answer in music theory, but maybe somebody could save me few more hours?

ouhh, "semitone" was the correct term for searching.

thanks Philippe!!
Yes, Gregory's example works perfect!


"Half tone" might have worked. Both that and "semitone" are used to mean the same thing. Which one works better in a search is a matter of luck.

Too bad the Max search doesn't include semantic analysis, then it wouldn't matter which word you use. Probably too much to ask for today, but in a couple of years…
