Access RNBO buffer~ only filled with time (or samples)?

Hi,

We've got it on our list to improve documentation around buffers and the various code/target exports.

In the mean time, I believe your [buf_tut_test] object should have attributes with the names of the buffers you specified inside your rnbo patch. For instance, I expect that there should be an attribute named rnbuff1. If you use an attrui, you can map the rnbo buffer rnbuff1 to any max buffer of your choosing by supplying the name of that max buffer as the value of the rnbuff1 attribute. In this case, you could put the symbol rnbuff1 into the attribute value for rnbuff1 to achieve the mapping that I figure you expect.

The reason for this extra step is, for instance, maybe you want to have a sample player external and you want to have more than one instance of the external sourcing from different buffers? With this attribute buffer mapping, you're able to do that.

Eventually, maybe we'll add the ability to embed audio directly into the external (and various other targets), so if you don't plan to ever change the content of a rnbo buffer, you can make it internal and not have to manage it at all after export, in that case, the rnbo buffer in the exported external would still be totally decoupled from a max buffer that shares the same name.
