get current position in sample?

[ulrik]

Is it possible to get current playing position in a sample, in a Sampler or LoopPlayer?

[ulrik]

@ulrik I'm referring to this:

[d.healey]

I don't see a function that gives access to it.

[ulrik]

@d-healey Hm, it could be useful to have that function.. @Christoph-Hart ?

[Christoph Hart]

Yes that is actually a good request - also it‘s the same for table ruler positions and highlighted sliders in a slider pack now so you‘ll get these too for free.

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart Horray!! 🥳

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart I just noticed your new commit, is this feature in? 🥶

[Christoph Hart]

Nope, not yet. I'll try to include it when I work on the complex data types next time.

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart Ok, thanks!

[Christoph Hart]

Next time was just now :)

Just create a reference to the actual data object, then call getCurrentlyDisplayedIndex(). Works with Tables, SliderPacks and AudioFiles.

But the playhead still isn't visible in my compiled standalone plugin... not sure what is going on...

@Christoph-Hart thank you Christoph, it works great, is it possible to get a

setPlayhead as well? 😬

[A Former User]

@ulrik Did you get this to work? I am trying to get a custom playhead panel to display the sample position... No luck so far.

[ulrik]

@UrsBollhalder yes it works, I use a timer to check current

Timer.setTimerCallback(function()
{
	var current = AudioFile.getCurrentlyDisplayedIndex();
	Console.print(current);
});

Allright... but... I have a Sampler with multiple audio files (5-7)... I suppose on the onNoteOn I have to somehow feed it the right audio file, no? With the AudioSampleProcessor.getAudioFile??

[ulrik]

@UrsBollhalder Hmm....yes you have to make a reference to that particular audio file, I don't remember how to do that but I guess you'll find it in the documentation
If I remember correctly, I think you have to make a "selection" of that file using some of these methods

and use it when making the reference ...

I've only used the "getCurrentlyDisplayedIndex();" inside the AudioPlayer, not the sampler

@ulrik ok... That'll be fun...
What is meant by indexes in this case? I also saw this one:

slotIndex?!

Thx for the help!

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart could we have a small snippet showing how to

getCurrentlyDisplayedIndex()

from played sample in a sampler?

I've fiddled around with

createSelection()
createSelectionFromIndexes()
and
createSelectionWithFilter()

but I just can't getCurrentlyDisplayedIndex()
from any of the selections, I guess I'm doing something stupid 🥺

[ulrik]

@Christoph-Hart I guess we need to enable this for creating the proper reference to the sampler, right?
