Hi there!

I'm new in Processing, so I've got 2 problems to solve:
I work with the new Minim Library, because I want to record and playback sound. Important for my code is, that it works with only two keys, because at the end I want to use a switch (Arduino) to control processing.

The first problem: If I want to record something, but the player is already playing, the player should stop. After the recording the player should play again from the position it stopped before. I don't get it to set a position when the player stops and to let the player play again from this position. What did I wrong?

The second problem: After every loop, the player should set its volume down, I don't know how to do this.

Perhaps someone can help me? Is for my studies and I don't have really much time...

Thank you!!!


Here is the code:


import ddf.minim.*;

AudioInput in;
AudioRecorder recorder;
AudioPlayer player = null;


int pos = 0;

void setup()
{
 size(512, 200);


 Minim.start(this);


 in = Minim.getLineIn(Minim.STEREO, 512);

 recorder = Minim.createRecorder(in, "myrecording.wav", true);


}

void draw()
{
 background(0);
}

void keyPressed()
{

 if ( key == 's' )
 {
   if ( recorder.isRecording() )
   {
     recorder.endRecord();
   }

   AudioRecording recording = recorder.save();
   player = new AudioPlayer(recording);
   //player.loop();
   println(player.length()+" "+ player.position()+" "+pos);
   player.skip((int)pos);
   player.loop();
   println(player.length());
 


   if (recording.length() > 50000){
     recorder = Minim.createRecorder(in, "myrecording.wav", true);
   }
 }
 else if ( key == 'r' )
 {

   if ( recorder.isRecording() )
   {

     //recorder.endRecord();

   }
   //else if (player.isPlaying())
   //{
   if (player != null)
   {
     player.pause();  
     pos = player.position();
     println("pos" + pos);
     println("pause");      
     println(player.length());  
   }
   recorder.beginRecord();


 }
}



void stop()
{

 in.close();
 if ( player != null )
 {
   player.close();
 }
 super.stop();
}

Perhaps I don't understand what the problem is, because I'm new in Processing, but I thought it should work:

I want to get the position where the old player stopped, to let the new player begin at this position. The number I will get should always be smaller than the length of the recorded file. Because before I play again from the last position, I continue recording. Finally it should just work like a pause.

The Recorder is the same until the file gets a defined length. After that I make a new Recorder which overwrites the old file.

Sorry for wasting your time, but I don't know it better.
