Description

Returns the loop segment start-time of a stored function table number.

Syntax

ftlptim(x) (init-rate args only)

Performance

Returns the loop segment start-time (in seconds) of stored function table number x. This reports the duration of the direct recorded attack and decay parts of a sound sample, prior to its looped segment. Returns zero (and a warning message) if the sample does not contain loop points.

Examples

Here is an example of the ftlptim opcode. It uses the files Play ftlptim.csd, and Church.wav

<CsoundSynthesizer>
<CsOptions>
; Select audio/midi flags here according to platform
-odac     ;;;realtime audio out
;-iadc    ;;;uncomment -iadc if realtime audio input is needed too
; For Non-realtime ouput leave only the line below:
; -o ftlptim.wav -W ;;; for file output any platform
</CsOptions>
<CsInstruments>

sr = 44100
ksmps = 32
nchnls = 2

The audio file “Church.wav” is a looped sample, its output should include lines like these:

Base Note : 60	Detune    : 0
Low  Note : 0	High Note : 127
Low  Vel. : 0	High Vel. : 127
Gain      : 1	Count     : 1
mode      : 801
start     : 4529	end       : 4912	count  :0
mode      : 0
start     : 0	end       : 0	count  :0
