play~ (reverse) & poly

I'm gonna do what i did last time. Trim my patch to just the part with the question a plug in buffers that are in everyone's Max Path.

So here i stuck play in play in the section marked A. It works as advertised. No problem.

B is the same patch only now the sounds play fowards and some times backwards by reversing some list input elements to line~ & play~, but otherwise is the same. but oddly, this doesn't play, it just makes my dac~ burp.

How do i fix this, and why does this happen? Is poly not freeing the first voice? I am cornfused.

Just by looking at the patch, it seems that the very first [trigger] in the "samply2" [poly~] could be causing issues. You're sending the bang before you set the new sample name to [info~] so you will be querying the last used sample length instead of the current one. Try swapping it to [t b i] and see if that helps.

ha. it's that way b/c the last person told me to switch it from [t b i ] to [t i b] in the place.

I switched it back but still no go.
