methods of timing with Groove~

Gexe's icon

ok....i realy hope this isn't a total noob question, cause i've been working on it all day long :(

heres the thing. im trying to slice up different length samples with Groove~ and it works fine so far. but i cant figure a way to keep the samples in time. obviously i can't just hook up a strait tempo like Metro or anything, sence the samples arn't the same size. what i need is somthing that will trigger right when Groove~ reaches endloop. i've used the loop sync output but to no avail. also im tired lol.

any help, i'd love.

thanks,
joel

P.s. if it is a noob question feel free to lay into me :)

here she is. just load a lopp of your own. somthing that already has a steady beat. also i realise that this patch might not be so straiforward so i put some headers in it. also i lost quite a few of the sample times so there isnt much to play with :(

Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

might be barking up the wrong tree here but see if this helps. could be a little tricky if ya crank up the playback speed too much (sig~ >= 5.0, depending on the loop size etc.)

The content of the question is certainly not, but the way you ask makes
it difficult to help...
Best is, as you did try something, to send a stripped down version of
your patch enhanced with some comments. Then a lot of people might have
a look at it to find out were you got stuck. We all get stuck even after
patching for decades.
Feel free to share your problems, you are not alone and you're welcome.
