Description

Plugin opcode in ftsamplebank.

Reads a directory for sound files and loads them to a series of GEN01 function tables.

Syntax

iNumberOfFile ftsamplebank SDirectory, iFirstTableNumber, iSkipTime, iFormat, iChannel,

kNumberOfFile ftsamplebank SDirectory, kFirstTableNumber, kTrigger, kSkipTime, kFormat, kChannel,

Initialization

SDirectory -- a string that identifies the directory to browse for files

FirstTableNumber -- this sets the number of the first table into which a soundfile will be loaded

Trigger -- updates the tables when kTrigger is 1, only applicable to k-rate version.

SkipTime -- begin reading at skiptime seconds into the file.

Format -- specifies the audio data-file format:

Channel -- channel number to read in. 0 denotes read all channels.

If format = 0 the sample format is taken from the soundfile header, or by default from the CSound -o command-line flag.

Performance

iNumberOfFile -- the number of tables that have been created

kNumberOfFile -- the number of tables that have been created

Example

This example shows ftsamplebank browsing for samples in a fixed location. It loads all samples it finds into GEN01 function tables and then playsa them back in a sequence, one every second. It uses the file ftsamplebank.csd.
