In the default wave player there's the line

index=index&(retrigger>=1)

Which, if retrigger is true then it'll set the index to 0, restarting the wav file.

I want to have it set arbitrary index positions and played around a bit with little success, can someone give me an idea of what I need to do?

Ideally it seems efficent to have retrigger be the value to set the index to unless I'm missing something? Instinctively I think it'd look something like ..

index=retrigger&(retrigger>=1)

But I'm not super sharp with RPN. Can someone help me out? I'd basically like to have an array of new positions that could be jumped to instead of looping or whathaveyou.

index = index + ( retrigger>=1 & (startIndex - index) ); might do the trick. This is from the top of my head though, so I haven't tried it out or anything 🙂

Well, the top of your head is better than the bottom of my brain. 😀 Thanks. Works like a charm.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
