mc.resize~ Reference

Resize a multichannel signal

mc.resize~

Description

The mc.resize~ object changes the number of channels in a connected single- or multichannel signal, producing an output multichannel signal with a number of channels specified by its argument.

Arguments

channels [int]

The argument sets the number of channels in the output multichannel signal.

Attributes

chans [int]

Sets the number of output channels in the multichannel output. If chans is sent to the object when audio is on, the number of output channels will not change until the audio is turned off and back on again.

replicate [int]

When replicate is 0, any channels in the output signal not in the input signal will be set to zero. When replicate is 1, input channels will repeat, cyclically if necessary, in the output.

select [atom]

The select attribute contains a list of channels in the input to be assigned to successive channels of the output starting at the first output channel. For example, an mc.resize~ object of size 3 with its select attribute set to 5 7 9 will copy channel 5 of an input multichannel signal to output channel 1, channel 7 to output channel 2, and channel 9 to output channel 3. When select is 0, it has no effect and input channels are copied to the output in order.
