That was just a preliminary release, check the SVN for the most up-to-
date (also I think I updated the tarball to have [bundle]).
The dynamic send idea is interesting, especially since you benchmarked
it. How did you benchmark it? That would be useful. Also, did you
try making the send symbol using a message box to benchmark, i.e.:
|
[pack float $0]
|
[$2-in1-$1(
|
[send]
|
It seems that the help patches do require something besides Pd-
vanilla, u_robinpoly-help.pd gives me this:
soundoutput
... couldn't create
u_loadmeter
... couldn't create
u_robinpolymono
... couldn't create
s_drumelectro a b c d
... couldn't create
s_drumelectro a b c d

s_drumelectro a b c d

s_drumelectro a b c d

When I launch u_makepoly-help.pd straight from rjdj/rjlib/rj, I get
this:
soundoutput
... couldn't create
1004-poly 3 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 5 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 7 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 9 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 11 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 13 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 15 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
1004-poly 17 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
And this from u_robinpoly-help:
soundoutput
... couldn't create
1160-poly 0 0 3 1 (receive->canvas) connection failed
1160-poly 3 1 2 0 (canvas->throw~) connection failed
