Max Sprintf Folder Destinations
Hello everyone,
I had a quick question for you all regarding saving an audio file through Max into a designated file path. I currently have this subpatch:
Without fail, this little subpatch saves a file named 'ten-minutes-0.aiff', 'ten-minutes-1.aiff' and so on, to the same folder directory in which this patch is located.
What I can't seem to figure out is how to specify that directory further. I'd like to save these files to a folder named 'recordings' which is also in the same folder directory as the patch. Of course I tried adding another sprintf message such as 'recordings/' (ending up with something like 'open recordings/ten-minutes-0.aiff' but it keeps creating it in the wrong place. Does anybody have any ideas about how one might fix this?
I have extensively searched within the help and the reference and I can't seem to figure it out.
Thank you!
Maks
Best would be to get the patch path from thispatcher object
and combine that with folder name and file name.
That should work perfectly for the patch.
If You build the standalone, then other options are possible.
