No loop in mubu.concat~

MuBu
#1

Hello guys,

I was wondering if there is any way of disabling the loop in the playback of mubu.concat~ ??

I have a container with segmented audio (standard markers track) and I want to play the different segments by sending the marker ID.
I thought that the easiest way would be sending a ‘markerindex $1’ message to an associated mubu.concat~ object, but the audio always loops.
Of course this makes sense, as this is supposed to be a ‘synthesis’ object, but I’d like to use it more as a ‘sampler’…

So, any way of ‘just triggering’ the segment?

thank you

one solution is to disable the “allow repeat” attribute, but then you won’t be able to play the same segment twice in a row. If that’s ok for your use case it might be the easiest way.

you can always trigger a grain with bang, even with @play 0, but to make things more convenient there is the @autotrigger option exactly for your case

hi guys,
thank you very much for your help.

@Jamesstaub: thank you, I can see the option in the inspector and it seems to work, although you need to enable and disable it first tho?.
Also I don’t seem to find the attribute on the mubu.concat~ reference??? What’s its actual name? I’d need to disable it automatically

@Schwarz: thanks, I was actually using a simple mubu.play~ object for the playback, with a mubu.track above it which was asked at every bang the position and length of each marker, although I was finding this approach a bit convoluted.
When you say ‘trigger a grain with a bang’, you still referring to mubu.concat~ ? Also, there doesn’t seem to be any @autotrigger option for it??

cheers

yes, mubu.concat. Did you find the attribute by now?

#6

no, for some reasons I can’t seem to find the attribute on the inspector, and even if I send a @autotrigger message to the object it doesn’t understand it
thanks anyway

what version are you using?

the one before the last (which has been released a couple of weeks ago if I’m not wrong?)
