fl.read~ not changing buffer (or im just stupid)

[Former user]

Hello all,

Playing around with making a granulator/segmentation patch I can't seem to get fl.read~ to change buffers dynamically by tagging 'buffer'. Example patch posted. Am I just doing this wrong?

[Alex Harker]

OK - this will be fixed in the next one (buffer changing in realtime wasn't actually implemented yet. On top of that there are two patching issues to be aware of:

1 - for setting string parameters from max you'll need to use fl.frommax~ in "params" mode.

2 - the fl.sink~ isn't large enough to fit frames as long as the brushes samples - the default length needs to be replaced.

Thanks for taking a look.

1. Understood

2. Default is 250000 - so is there a max? Just curious

[Alex Harker]

No max.

Can you build the latest and check this so I can mark as resolved?

I'm having some trouble getting it to work as intended. Its 2am so I'll try tomorrow with a clear head.

Can't seem to get it to work. I put the fl.frommax~ into /mode params (which solved an issue where it was crashing when I switched audio on), but I don't get any changing of the buffer which fl.read~ is looking at. I also got some crashes which seemed unrepeatable so likely something in my patching technique but I'll put the log on pastebin nonetheless.

Can't attach files here so this is the slightly modified version I was working with.

The crashes hopefully have been fixed today, so please pull and build again.

The usage of fl.frommax~ is not quite right (BTW fl.tomax~ can now translate tagged frames so you can check what is going on that way also):
