## vaset

vaset — Write value of into the current buffer of an a-rate variable by index.

## Description

Write values into the current buffer of an a-rate variable at the given index. Useful for doing sample-by-sample manipulation at k-rate without using setksmps 1.

| Note
Because this opcode does not do any bounds checking, the user must be careful not to try to write values past ksmps (the size of a buffer for an a-rate variable) by using index values greater than ksmps.

| Note
In Csound6 this opcode does do bounds checking.

## Syntax

    vaset kval, kndx, avar

## Performance

kval - value to write into avar

kndx - index of the sample to write to the current buffer of the given avar variable

avar - a-rate variable to write to

## Examples

Here is an example of the vaset opcode. It uses the file vaset.csd.
