I'm trying to use the write message to buffers to save audio in a patch, but getting confused.

write "Macintosh HD/Users/timlloyd/Desktop/msp looper recordings/one.wav"

write "Macintosh HD/Users/timlloyd/Desktop/msp looper recordings/1one.wav"

I was going through the regexp help file and it seems to be the object I need, but I can't work out how to use it.

Can anyone suggest a way of "prepending" the file name of the wav with increasing numbers?

so the %... in sprintf is the same concept as $1?

Pretty much although you can specify data type and formatting %ld is a long int if I remember correctly. Search "printf reference" for more information.

Is there a way of creating a new folder within an existing filepath from within max?

That way I could have a new folder also created for each set of .wav files saved at once.
