I'm using record~ to record audio into a buffer~ and then play that audio

as a loop with groove~ based on the loop start and end points that info~ is provides.

As I understand it info~ should provide me in ms the length of my recorded audio in the buffer. Is this not correct?

Can anyone have a look at my example patch and enlighten me? Many Thanks!

attached is the test example saved as both a max patch and a m4l patch

it's the same example though.

'You can also use the the info~ object to find out the length (in milliseconds) of any file you load into a buffer.'....

So I'm thinking this doesn't apply to a file that is 

 into a buffer. Cause when I record into buffer with record~, info~ is not giving me anything except the pre designated length of the buffer. hmm....

from the documentation -

What you're observing is correct behavior for info~. If you make an object called [buffer~ myrecording 30000] and record into it for 5 seconds, the size of the buffer is still 30 seconds. However, you have the power to be smarter than info~. Use the timer object to measure the time between when you turn on recording and when you stop recording.
