Thanks!  Glad you like it.

It's a really simple patch created in Praxis LIVE (www.praxislive.org)
- basically an audio:custom component feeding into the output.  Praxis
LIVE is a hybrid visual IDE and runtime that allows for live-coding
with Processing, Java and GLSL code.  The audio side has JACK bindings
and mixes a typical ugen environment with the ability to inject
live-codeable functions.

You can see pretty much all of the custom code in this at the
beginning of the video.  There's a sawtooth LFO that is used to feed
the function with two values at audio rate and return the output (this
could be one input value but two makes it a little easier :-) )

s -> going from 0 to 1 in the space of one loop
m -> going from 0 to 1 in the space of four loops

$ -> this is a Table variable loaded with the Amen sample.

tabread() is a function that reads from the table using normalised values.

So, tabread($, s); will play the sample normally, and it all builds from there.

Hope that makes sense?!

Best wishes, Neil
