    Is there a way to get the current playback position from groove~ ? I'm playing an audio file and I want to be able to tell its location hopefully by millisecond. Any help would be great. Thanks!

      First thoughts would be, [info~ /yourbuffername/] will output total file size in [buffer~] and [groove~] outputs a 0. to 1. ramp over the duration of the loop, so multiply this ramp by file size; also, look at the [waveform~] object.
      like this:

      I've looked into waveform~. I will check out the info~ suggestion and see what I can make happen. Thanks.

      here's the same patch, with added [waveform~]

      Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

      and what if you wanted to change the min and max playback values? simple math?

      easier to simply impose line over waveform at that point? thanks
