I want this process to be repeated 12 times so that in the end there will be 12 different bars of music being played and constantly looping.

problem I am having is with the buffer and I cant seem to get it to be flexible in terms of the length of recording I can do.

It should be somewhat longer than the expected length of the bar. You can resize a buffer dynamically using the size message, see the documentation.

The point of a buffer is to have a piece of pre-allocated memory that can be written to efficiently. You should, in general, always have some buffer overhead. Enlarging buffers while recording is a bad idea.

Objects that index buffers (e.g. play~ and groove~) will take arguments to determine which part of the buffer is actually played back (see links above).
