<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
This opcode reads vectors from tables at k-rate.

<div class="refsect1" title="Syntax">
<a id="idp53472416"></a>
<h2>Syntax</h2>
<pre class="synopsis"><span class="command"><strong>vtabk</strong></span> kndx, ifn, kout1 [, kout2, kout3, .... , koutN ]</pre>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Initialization">
<a id="idp53482800"></a>
<h2>Initialization</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>ifn</em></span> - table number
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Performance">
<a id="idp53483624"></a>
<h2>Performance</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>kndx</em></span> - Index into f-table, either a positive number range matching the table length
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>kout1...koutN</em></span> - output vector elements
</p>
<p>
This opcode is useful in all cases in which one needs to access sets of values associated to unique indexes (for example, multi-channel samples, STFT bin frames, spectral formants, p-field based scores etc.) . The number of elements of each vector (length of the vector) is determined by the number of optional arguments on the right (<span class="emphasis"><em>kout1</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>kout2</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>kout3</em></span>, .... <span class="emphasis"><em>koutN</em></span>).
</p>
<p>
Notice that no wrap nor limit mode is implemented. So, if an index attempt to access to a zone not allocated by the table, Csound will probably crash. However this drawback can be easily avoided by using wrap or limit opcodes applied to indexes before using <span class="emphasis"><em>vtabk</em></span>, in order to correct eventual out-of-range values.
</p>
<p>
The <span class="command"><strong>vtab</strong></span> family is similar to <span class="command"><strong>vtable</strong></span>, but is much faster because interpolation is not available, table number cannot be changed after initialization, and only raw indexing is supported.
</p>

Notice that <span class="emphasis"><em>vtabk</em></span>'s output arguments are placed at the right of the opcode name, differently from usual (this style is already used in other opcodes using undefined lists of output arguments such as <a class="link" href="fin.html" title="fin"><em class="citetitle">fin</em></a> or <a class="link" href="trigseq.html" title="trigseq"><em class="citetitle">trigseq</em></a>).
