I have a show at the end of this week and need to get this knob working any help would be appreciated as I also need to get some practice in this week.

The knob records movement and plays it back in a loop. Right now when it is turned on it picks up from where the loop is currently at. How would I make that loop start at the beginning of the loop every time it is switched on. I would like it to work both ways. IE Start from zero and play to end every time its switched on and the way it is now pick up from current position.

One other question. The way this knob is built, would there be some way to store the recorded movement so it could be reloaded?

Thanks Attic

just for the readout mode it could work like that:

The movement could be stored as a float array and read with the wave read modules. But i guess it would make more sense to change the whole handling to a wave read/write instead of pimping the actual solution.

I really appreciate that. That will get me through the week with with some extra sleep and practice time. The save function would be cool but not necessary for what I'm doing. When I'm done with this week I will revisit this and pour some time into some kind of memory function. I would probably be happy if it just remembered its last used loop, but it might be cool if you could load them from disk. Anyhow much thanks for that. 🙂
