Hi, is it not possible to record audio into gen~? Looks like the buffer can only live outside of gen~.
I am working on a project similar to a looper. This requires to record into a buffer. Did I overlook something?
Thanks, Hans

Hi Hans, yes you can .
Poke and Peek are your friends ! you can write and read the data object inside gen~ with a counter.
That’s how my plugin MIRRORZ plays backward works
Check out this tuto Tutorial: gen~ for Beginners, Part 4: Working with buffers (and data) | Cycling '74
All the best
great, let me check! Both in the Max examples and in Gregory’s tutorials buffer
was always referencing a buffer~
object outside of gen~
. So if it works it would be a gamechanger! ;-))

For me it was also unclear at the beginning…but if you read carefully Gregory’s tuto you’ll see:
" Note: The techniques for playback we’ll be looking at here work for both the buffer and data operators in your gen~ patcher, although I’m going to be focusing on the buffer operator."
So you’ll have to use the “data” object inside Gen~ :
i.e “poke Blabla” to write and “peek Blabla” to read the content of “data Blabla”
…“data” is the buffer
delighted to see this little hint… thanks, guys!
p.s. i moved this thread into the max/msp category, where gen~ discussion has been occurring.
yep, works. Thanks!!
