Actually... with PlayBuf nothing. I was worried it would push the
mul add slots, but I forgot that PlayBuf doesn't have mul and add.
I literally spent days a few weeks ago tracking down a bug in some
old code where this had happened (between SC2 and SC3, I believe
it was Saw that lost its phase argument, or something similar to
that). I was trying to avoid a similar problem, not realizing that
it wasn't one!
I was also thinking though (and still do), that it could avoid
confusion. Whenever one parameter's actions depend on the state of
another (if loop, don't do doneAction), I question whether or not
the argument can be rolled into a single one. That's just me
though. I'm fine either way since the situation mentioned above
won't happen.
Best,

Confused: What's wrong with just an extra arg?

But it is just one inconsistency. It seems like a logical place
for this argument though...
Or, change loop to -1? This breaks code, but it shouldn't be a
terribly difficult change for most users to do as they upgrade
to 3.3. Or, -1 pauses the synth. Still inconsistent, but not
terrible.

Not consistent then, as no action 1.

Why not make loop, the doneAction? 1 loops, 0 does nothing, 2
releases, 3 etc...

I also find this frustrating and often use the
Line.kr(1,1,dur,doneAction:whatever)
kludge.
usr point of view, even if I haven't noticed the thread on sc-
usr. Me too. So boring. Would be pretty cool.
