Selector with multiple outputs?
Hey guys, I'm looking for an object similar to the selector, but that will let me output more than one signal at once.
I'm going to have multiple buffers and groove objects each with a different musical sample. So I want the user to be able to choose either one or multiple samples to play at once via a live.tab (or similar) object.
So my question is, what is the best object similar to selector that will let me output one or multiple audio signals (matrix?) and is there a live.tab object where you can select multiple buttons at once...
Any help is much appreciated !
Thanks
matrix~ can have multiple I/O .
But you don't need it, only start sounds that you want to hear, stop the others.
if you want to looop all sounds all the time and only use volume control,
then also simple logic would do,
mute sounds that you don't want to hear, and opposite.
There are quite few object that let you choose several items,
but again, if you want to play "at once" which I understand as start at same time, you could do with individual toggles and one start button.
for such simple playback - why bother with buffers and grooves, where sfplay~ could do as well ?
thanks very much for your reply. So which object that would be similar to live.tab could I use? That would allow the user to press one or multiple buttons at once?
to press multiple buttons at once is physically not possible.
you should post what exctly you want to do.
I have no time to guess if you want to trigger list of enabled
samples at same time or not etc.
if you need single object that can select-deselect multiple items,
look into matrixctrl, radiogroup, multislider
