I'm using the polybuffer~ object to handle several buffers at once. It works fine so far, but I've noticed, when using the "getsize" message to get the size in bytes, that it shows twice as much as the size on my hard disk. Is this normal?

I'm using max 7.0.4 on mountain lion (tried both, 32-bit and 64-bit version), loading stereo 16 bit files.

The next question is related to my first one. Is there a possibility to access the individual buffers to e.g. restrict the buffers definitively to 16bit or to only one channel (if the audio-files are in stereo) or change the sample-rate and more?
