Although using the subArray record is the easiest for the job you just described, if you want to do more complicated processing e.g. extract X values in X records or do some convolution/transformation, etc... a subroutine record may be more appropriate.
Long ago, it was called genSub. Now it is called asub and is included in base.

Cheers,
