hi, i just had a quick look at your patch - a little too convoluted  
to be easily debugged. and your screen is obviously a lot bigger than  
mine...
but the patch seems to work over here. loadbanging the dac is  
problematic. wouldn't do that, or at least delay it a little bit.
don't know why you want to use curve~ instead of linear playback, but  
you'll have your reasons.
the number of repeats is not correct because of the ">=" in the [if]  
statement - use ">" instead.
apart from that, it seems fine.
