I would like to display individual sample values from a buffer~ using waveform~ but am having a problem getting waveform~ to display the correct values. For instance if I try to set waveform~ to show 4 samples of the buffer at a time, I get better results using a start time and length as a multiple of 5 samples. Then samples 0-3 and 4-7 display fine but sample 8 is missing then 9-13 displays fine. Is it my bad maths? Rounding error?

I'm building an audio-rate sequencer using peek~ to get values into a buffer~ and I would then like waveform~ to display groups of samples values (beats).

I see your problem, and this may not be what you want, but could you scroll the start time with a floating-point number instead? Change the number box labelled, "beat", to a floating-point numberbox and change the attached to and then, at least, you can scroll to see every single value?

Otherwise... open the waveform~ inspector and change the "Set Display Grid" attribute to 1.... ah, wait, i think that's what you might want. Hope I understand and hope that helps.

yea, i think i get nice results with changing the "Set Display Grid" attribute to '1' this way you can choose any beat "size" you want...sorry, just making sure I end with the better answer, haha.

nope, i'm wrong, there are still samples missing. sorry again.

ok, last post, i promise... i can't find any other way other than to use floating-point numbers to scroll the values so you can at least see each one by picking values between integers like this:

Not sure why this is like this... but, hope it helps.

Sussed it...the 'first' beat goes from samples 0-4, the next from 5-8 then 9-12, etc, etc...so i've stuck a couple of '+ 1' objects in there...and now it works for all sizes...
