chucker~
Description
chucker~ takes a specified amount of audio data, stores the data in an internal buffer, divides the buffered data into equal sections, and allows the sections to be reordered on playback.
Arguments
buffer-size-in-ms [int]
An optional integer argument can be used to set the number of milliseconds to allocate for the recorded sound. (e.g. an argument of 8000 will allocate enough memory for a stereo output of 8 seconds)
Note: The actual allocation will be larger than what is specified by the argument, since the chucker~ object supports two buffers and provides for double-buffering.
