Smooth audio looping

vvvv beta general
1

I’m trying to write an audio sequencer using vvvv, but looping a sample using FileStream results in a small but noticable delay between loops. Is there a way to loop audio files smoothly, without interruption as the program re-loads the sample?

Thanks!

halo phil.

i am afraid this is a known problem. are you using .wav or .mp3? i’d guess that maybe .wavs would do a better job. vvvv is not yet really developed with a focus on sound. for writing an audio-sequencer i would definitely recommend http://www.puredata.org over vvvv.

I tried both. There was less of a delay with MP3s, but still too much for looping, unfortunately :-/

Thanks for the help.
