Hi Hans,
these look pretty cool and very useful. The rj library has two
polypoly-like objects as well: [u_makepoly] and [u_robinpoly] (of course
the latter don't require any externals or modifications to vanilla Pd).
I have found in some benchmarks, that the [inlet]---[route 0 1 2 3 ...]
technique can become quite slow for larger numbers of instances, so I
have replaced it in the rj-polys with the much faster technique if
dynamically assigned renamed [send]s. I have attached the patches so you
see what I mean. It really makes a difference on slow hardware like
iPod or Android phones.
Ciao
