I set this up so that a [phasor~] is reading through a table, an [hslider] underneath the table provides a visual of where in the table we are, AND you can adjust the [hslider] to re-position the playback.

This works perfectly, but it seems a little... inelegant. I don't like the fact that I'm resetting the phase of [phasor~] with every [metro] bang. It's like I'm doing double work... the phase reset is only useful when I move the [hslider] by hand.

Anyone have any opinions on this? Like I said, it works fine, it just seems like there must be a prettier way to do it.

@Load074 You can use "set" in a message so that the slider moves but does not send the message onwards to [phasor~]
Then only dragging the slider will reset the phase...... hmm.pd

of COURSE! The good ol' [set $1(. How quickly we forget.
I guess there's no way of putting that in the [hslider] properties, which is actually where I was receiving my "fromPhasor" (instead of using wires). But that's better really; I always forget that I used the "properties" for send/receive after a few weeks, and have a horrible time troubleshooting my work.
Thanks!

@Load074 Yes, sends and receives in properties can be hard when revisiting an old patch.
You could stick it all in a subpatch and use graph on parent to show just the table and the hslider........ which will be a lot prettier.
