BufSamples current number of samples allocated in the buffer

superclass: BufInfoUGenBase

Returns the current number of allocated samples. A sample is not the same as a frame (compare BufFrame); a frame collects the current samples across all channels of the buffer. Only for a mono buffer are samples the same as frames.

*kr(bufnum)

*ir(bufnum)

the .ir method is not the safest choice. Since a buffer can be reallocated at any time,

using .ir will not track the changes.

// example; this buffer is mono, so the number of samples matches the number of frames

s.sendMsg("/b_allocRead", 0, "sounds/a11wlk01.wav");

// indexing with a phasor

{ BufRd.ar(1, 0, Phasor.ar(0, BufRateScale.kr(0), 0, BufSamples.kr(0))) }.play;

// indexing by hand

{ BufRd.ar(1, 0, K2A.ar(MouseX.kr(0, BufSamples.kr(0)))) }.play;
