Don't measure something when that something can be known beforehand.
Instead of a [phasor~] I'd use a [vline~] to control the play head. Then
you only need to tell [vline~] in what time it should play your table.
You can use the exact same value to control a [metro]. Example:

[metro 2000] <- 2s interval
|
[0, 88200 2000(  <- play the 88200 samples of your table in 2s
|
[vline~] 
|
[tabread4~ yourtable]


(You really want [vline~] here and not [line~] as only the former is
able to start ramps in the middle of blocks)

No.

[metro] is indeed sample accurate, it's even sub-sample accurate. So is
[delay]. However, only some tilde-classes make effective use of it,
namely [vline~] and [vsnapshot~]. 


There are lots of threads about this topic in the archive. If you're
