I want to be able to write the values of a temporary array, into the array that is currently being outputted to the DAC. The way ive tried to do it is:
[phasor~]
|
[tabread~ arrayTemp]
|
[tabwrite~ arrayCurrent]

But it doesn't seem to be working, is there something else i should be doing?

Hi,

You can't use [phasor~] to read an array via [tabread~] like that, because the output of [phasor~] is always between 0. and 1., while [tabread~] uses a single integer number for each sample (that is, it has 44100 units for every second of sound at a sample rate of 44100). So if you want to use [phasor~], you need this:

[phasor~ 1]
|
[*~ 44100]
|
[tabread~ array]

You will need to exchange the numbers above if your sample has a different size than 1 second.

Alternatively, you can automatize the process of copying one array into another by using [line~] by simultaneously triggering the moment in which an array is to be copied, and to read it as well.

So have a look on this little patch below. This is before clicking in the message [0, 44100 1000(:

And this is after:

You can find the patch here: Untitled-2.pd

I hope this helps. Take care,
Gilberto

@gsagostinho thanks for the help, that seems like it will work perfectly for my patch thanks.

[tabread~ arrayTemp]

you can just bang [tabplay~ arrayTemp] to playback at samplerate speed.
