If a sample is too long to load into RAM, is there a way of dynamically time-indexing the start point and length to extract slices without having to chop it up by hand to make it a multi-sampler?

like an on-disk re-order?

DiskPlayer has a Start field and a Duration field; you might be able to use those.

They can take the compile-time green variables but not the CapyTalk hot values.

yesterday, I tried making a script , to be able to skip to different points on a disk file.

something like ..

| t |
t := !filepos.
DiskPlay start: 0s fileposition: t

with

?fileposition

in the file position field of the DiskPlayer sound.

the compiler crashes out - I guess you only get to set the fileposition once, at compile time. Or could I also send a re-trig to DiskPlayer along with the updated fileposition?

I think it would be very useful to be able to skip to different points in a disk file, as I am using Kyma more and more for mastering. And it takes forever if you have to listen from the start all the time.
