I'm looking for a way to avoid clipping when I sample clips (quite rapidly) from a sound file. 

I've looked for solutions with play~ from a buffer, and with sfplay~ from sflist~

adsr~ is for signals not audio (or is there a way of using it for an audio file?) 

Ideally this envelop could follow the size of the sample (as is possible with adsr). However, at this stage I would be happy with anything in which I could create a fixed envelope - and make sure samples were at the same length.

But it seems: 
line~ only affects attack

See the 'list input' tab of the line~ help file for how to create multi-segment line~s.

adsr~ can work if you calculate the total duration of the sample vs the time taken by the attack, decay and release.

function is a good alternative, also. You can use the domain message to adjust the length of the envelope to your needs

Thanks very much for these suggestions Holland!
