@alxx Unfortunately, there's currently no way to rewind a `Reader`, or to seek in general. Besides creating multiple `Reader` instances like you mentioned, I suppose another option if your file...

Oh interesting! I’ve never tried using the gem for real-time stuff, so unfortunately I don’t have any particular insights to add about that. How did you determine garbage collection was...

Thanks for opening this issue! Like you pointed out, `WaveFile::Reader` currently isn't able to read a *.wav file using ~a non-seekable `IO`~ an `IO` instance that doesn't support `pos`. I...
