Greetings forum,

It's been a while. I am just enjoying Max 7 - - as I progress, it seems like everything I want to do is simpler and easier. Thanks to C74...

Here is a patch which I have always wanted. Sometimes I obtain a giant folder full of samples - for example, drum hits - hundreds or thousands of them - - and I just want to scan through them and see what is going on.

So here is a patch that plays all the sounds in a folder. It also plays all sounds in any folders contained in the folder, and all of the sounds in any folders contained in any folders in the folder, and - I hope - all of the sounds contained in any of the folders that are contained in the folders that are contained in the folder, on down to turtles.

Ciao, hope all's well - -

As long as I wandered around here I'm baffled by your work.
Thanks.

Thanks... be sure to put the patcher into Presentation Mode - it's much less baffling that way.

I, for one, was happy to see 'Harmonic Filter' in the Max 7 Tour - !
Right after the mind-blowing demonstration of stretch~.
