how do I open up 24/96 audio files with the soundfiler object and a read message? I keep on getting "bad header information". I tried using -byte 2 but I don't think im doing it properly.

Does your audio file work with other audio programs?

-byte is an option for writing only, check the help patch for soundfiler for full details.

I don't have your problem on Linux Pd 0.37.1 devel, with threaded soundfiler.

I saved a stereo 24bit / 96kHz PCM WAV file from Audacity 1.2.0 and it worked fine with [soundfiler] :



Output in the Pd console:
