Audio stops playing while mics are being purged.
-
So I am trying to build a multi-mic instrument and everytime I purge/load 1 microphone, the whole instrument stops playing while purge is happening. Is this normal? Is there a way to load-unload microphones without interrupting those not in the process?
-
Yes it‘s a safety measure. Normally you don‘t need to change the purge state mid-playback so it makes sure it doesn‘t play samples that are about to be purged.

@Christoph-Hart I have a close/far slider, it would be cool if it could automatically purge the silent mic when at either extreme and load it again when the slider is moved away from the extreme, but this behavior makes that impossible.
-
@Simon yeah but there‘s nothing we can do about this. I don‘t think that‘s a real constraint though - if you load / unload samples that is always a operation that will interrupt the processing and I kind of expect that as a user.

@Christoph-Hart I understand it's probably a pain to implement, but in Kontakt you can load or unload samples and it doesn't stop playback, so it is a small deviation from what people are used to.
