Hi,
while i play a sample with
sample [“path”,“partOfFile”,“OtherPart”]
the terminal show things like:
sample “/path/”,
“file.wav”, {pan: 1, lpf: 100, hpf: 70, start: 0.2, amp: 0, pamp: 0.2, pamp_slide: 3}
Is it possible to get the filename and path, to write it to a file?
something like
log = "/path/logfile.log"
log.puts samplepath [“path”,“partOfFile”,“OtherPart”]
log.puts samplename [“path”,“partOfFile”,“OtherPart”]
Thank you
sample_paths might provide the path details you’re looking for, and you can use Ruby’s file I/O to write the file – parse the parts you’re interested in from sample_paths YOUR_SAMPLE into path_stuff in the sample code below…
path_stuff = (sample_paths YOUR_SAMPLE)[0]
log = "/path/logfile.log"
x = File.open(log, "w")
x.puts path_stuff
x.close
hth,

Thank you!
With this, it is possible to print out the complete filepath.
Is it even possible to only print the filename? like “sound.wav”?
And a second question. (Sorry, but i am not so firm with Ruby and the Stringmanipulationthings…)
Is it possible to sorround the filepath with other text? like “The file sound.wav was played at time: 2:32, with amp 2 and a panning of -0.3”
Thanks!
sure, parsing strings works like this:
puts (sample_paths :ambi_choir)[0].split("/")[-1] # unqualified filename
you can generate sentence-like text strings by concatenating the bits together:
o = " orange"
puts "apple " + 36.to_s + o
perhaps sample_info provides some interesting sample details as well
Hi there,
simply use sample_info to get access to information about your sample 
s = sample_info :ambi_choir
puts s.path
Thank you very much!
Works great
Sorry for my questions. But …
is there a way to print out the time?
When i play a sample the console puts out a
{run: 1, time:1.234}
Can i access this time value?
Thanks!
Yes, have a look at the lang documentation and the function: sample_duration.
sample_duration only gives me the duration of the current sample.
I want the complete past time… or i had to make an addition of all sleeps before the point i want to know the time…
Ah, i found:
puts rt(beat)
Seams to work.
Thanks!
sorry…no…does not do it right…
Oh, sorry. Well, yes, you probably will have to add up all your sleeps. At least I don’t know of any function in the core.
ok. thank you very much!
Found a way, even if its not very stable.
At the beginning i set
t = Time.now
and in the moment is use it i do
puts (Time.now - t)
But this gives slightly different values each time. But i can live with it
See the fn vt - perhaps that’s what you’re looking for?
