@Balwyn Thank you! Yes this is exactly what I'm looking for.

New to PD and just joined the forum, great to be here :o)

My predicament is this: I want to write a patch for a sampler synth with pitch shifting without time stretching. This will be used in conjunction with a Critter and Guitari Organelle. From what I have seen, this is pretty straight forward to do with the phasor~ object via granular synthesis, however this causes the sample to loop. On the other hand, using the vline~ object allows for the sample to play on command without repetition but I can’t seem to figure out how to implement constant time.

I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to do a similar thing? Either using a phasor~ without repeats or constant time duration with vline~? Any help is appreciated :o)
