Is it possible to change the number of channels of an [sfplay~] object by sending a message? I mean, without writing [sfplay~ 2], for having the two channels outlets. i want to have an [sfplay~] and setting the number of channels later!

But you could also use [sfplay~ 8] (8 is an exemple, could be less) and route the outputs depending on the number of channels in your file. To get the number of channels, use sfinfo~.
