Pure Data Recorder

Another method to record in Pure Data is record through writesf~ object. To do so, it have to send three command into writes~ object, open(create) a wav file, start and stop recording. The problems is if I just use open_[filename], then I would overwrite the last recording. In order to record multiple tracks, I have to make a system that will change file name every time I press open. In order to use one bottom to record and stop (which is the toggle), I used number box and moses object to trigger the record system. When the toggle on, it would be one in number box, and that will trigger the bang in the right to create file and record; when it off, it will trigger the bang in the left and the bang will send signal into message stop. By using integer object to store and recall number and feed +1 object next to it, it will create a loop, and every have bang in, it will +1 to the number that store in integer object. Then the number go into a makefilename object. In the message section, use $ to indicate the various number. As a result, every time when press record, the file name will increase in one from zero. That overcome the overwrite file problem.
