PS by simpler, i mean only using one buffer and one sample object, changing the buffers reference in sync... if that makes sense...

Any one?

????

have a look at the thread from march 20 : "Can I switch from buffer~ to buffer~ with gen~ ?"

it is pretty simple :-) r.

Thanks Robert, wow the real Robert Henke, im blushing!

Yes i am fully aware and able to change [buffer] and [data] references inside [gen~] using a message, that is covered in the gen help patch. (I try not to ask questions answered by help patches!)

my question is whether there is a way to change buffer references in sync with a [sah] object inside of [gen~]...

my example below does so using two [buffer] objects and a gate...

can it be done with one?... probably not because [gen~] can't really store text based data only signal and matrix information.... oh well... :)

thanks. a

No, currently there's no way to switch buffer references in response to a signal event; the only option is to create several buffers with different references and switch between them using e.g. a selector operator, or an if() block in GenExpr.
