Dynamically generating windows in gen~

The order of arguments - first value, then index. Try: poke(window, i/127, i, 0);

wow. Thanks for that. I wonder how long that would've taken me to sort out on my own...

I was just a fresh pair of eyes. Cheers:)

Hello Evan,

as I understood (hope ;-)) you solved the problem with click less loops with windowing I would love to get your insights / code about implementing that into my solution.

I have a simple gen buffer peek poke counter combination as a loop recorder / player. I would like to avoid the clicks at the beginning and the end. I see different combinations possible, please comment based on your experiences if possible and I would also be very happy if you could give me some advice how to code that into gen.

Possible way (like to hear your comments / experiences):

- Envelope Following & Ramping down / up: Recording a ramp beginning with 0 amplitude over a period of e.g 64, 128 samples, following the current input signal, until the ramp reaches the current signal amplitude from the input. The same happens when I stop recording. A ramp down from the current signal amplitude to 0 is being recorded over a period of e.g 64, 128 samples. With this I would suppose no clicks are there any more when playing this loop.

Here is my current patch (pretty basic).

I would forget about envelope following, as I don't really see the benefits in this case, and its xtra calculations. You could scale the input amplitude with a ramp going from 0 -1 and 1-0 over the defined amount of samples. Or you could scale the output, and this might give you more accurate looping (the extra 64 /128 samples at the end could add up over time).

Thanks Evan for your POV. I will try out.

Evan, tried out and you were right: it got perfect results with scaling the output - no clicks at all when I am looping any sound source. So there is no need to go down the path of zero crossing or envelope following to get a click free looper :-)

Great to hear!
