For a work Im doing I will have multiple audio files (around 10 - 15) on an sd card.
I would like to playback them using pd .
What is the best way for loading and playback audio file in pd? I'm coming from the Max/MSP platform. Is there any object simillar to groove~? or perhaps it will be better to read the file from the sd card using an object similar to sfplay~ ?

Thanks!

I am using the method introduced in that

It seems to work just fine.
At the moment, when the audio file reaches it end it will immediately start playing from the beginning. I would like that when the file reaches it end, it will be back to time zero(the beginning of the file) but will not start by itself rather only when I push a toggle to something. How can I do so ?

here is my patch:

ReadingTab.pd

@omer1789 It is very difficult to stop the playback using [phasor~] because detecting the instant that [phasor~] wraps back to zero is unreliable.
You can use [line~] or better [vline~] instead of [phasor~]
They will do the same.... create a ramp from 0 to 1, but just once.

Otherwise, [readsf~] is easier like this.......... cart_wav_simple.pd
But because it uses [switch~] to pause playback you should open multiple copies of the cart..... one for each track..... rather than copying the patch numerous times into the same window.
[switch~] will then only turn off and on dsp processing (and so pause playback) for that individual window.

Because the name of the track will be lost (because all the copies of the abstraction are identical) you will have to add the name as an argument...... so [cart_wav_simple 07023329] and within the abstraction [open /Users/....../music/$1.wav] The abstraction will then open the track with the argument as its track name.

If you set the GOP (graph on parent) to on for each abstraction with the red box just around the playback controls then you can have a neat main patch with just those controls showing.
Right-click to properties within the abstraction to set the GOP and then save the abstraction.

Does the tabread4~ object can play stereo files?
Or in order to do so I must duplicate my whole patch for the right channel ?

@omer1789 No, an array can only be one channel.
You do not need to copy the whole patch, just modify it like this...... I don't know the name of the right channel, but....... this.pd
Assuming the left and right channels are the same length.
I might have made a mistake, but I think it is correct.

Do I need to connect the read message of arrayL to a soundfiler object? It seems it won't load it to the array.

It seems the answer is Yes

assuming I have a multiple audio files in a folder and I would like to load a difference audio file based on a bang, how can I do so?

I try that method but it seems $1 won't replace the path name I try to load

randfile.pd

I am using list prepend and append objects but I can't transfer the data inside the sound filer object

@omer1789 "I try that method but it seems $1 won't replace the path name I try to load"
Here you probably need to declare that the incoming for $1is a symbol....... i.e.
[symbol /Users/omer/Music/002.wav( for the message.

In the following post you often need to add a [list trim] after a [list append] (or [list whatever]) so as to remove the list tag....... because in the end what you need is a symbol, and not a list.

Yes, I did so using route object. Thanks

Does Raspberry Pi 2 Model B is enough to run Pure Data with a patch that play multiple audio files and some processing such as delay, reverb etc ?
Or better to have Raspberry Pi 3 ?
