Hopefully someone here can help me understand what's going on. I'm working on a patch to help me practice and perform a piece for clarinet and "tape". I'm using sfplay~ and sflist~ to manage the sound files (which are longish. the second one is +8 minutes). I've got a few cues loaded into sflist~ to help me practice the piece. However every time I open the patch I get the message "sflist: preload: no current file". Which to me would seem like the patch wouldn't work except it always works the way I expect it to. I've tried delaying messages to the cues, and using the "embed 1" message but the error keeps coming back. Can someone help me sort this out?

try this; [sflist] was getting the 'preload' instruction before the 'open' message; using the [trigger] object we can impose a message order:

Thanks. I'll try [trigger] in the other part of the patch too and see what I get.
