I'm new to Gen and I try to create a simple buffer player that is able to choose a start point of loop and end point of loop and to play it at a specific rate. I took a buffer patch from those nice Gen tutorial https://cycling74.com/tutorials/gen~-for-beginners-part-4-working-with-buffers-%C2%ABand-data%C2%BB

and I added a waveform~ in order to easy choose a segment of a loop.

I'm getting plenty of clicks and pops and the pitch is continues changing.

How can I do a simple buffer player in Gen ?

...needs to slow down the rate you can change things(uses 'sah' to synchronize input to the start of each clock-cycle - if you increase the clock-rate, the rate-of-change can get faster as well). Also, I was experimenting with creating a trapezoid envelope and then translating it with sinusoidal curvature into a 'hanning window' all within gen~ so you might still get a few clicks here and there as that is not an ideal granular windowing technique(would work better if the value of '20' i chose there changed on-the-fly according to the length of the grain...).

But it does show a way to get rid of the clicks by targeting the major problem areas: synchronization of the input, and windowing at the output. Hope it helps.
