In response to your example below, the result of the addition will be 5~ given that messages [2( and [3( were sent while DSP was off. This is a surprise to me! <br><br>[sig~] can be helpful when you require a constant value at audio-rate, any example I can conjure seems contrived (as in writing a constant value to a tabwrite~).<br>

Why not have implicit control -> signal conversion everywhere it is possible?<br>
For example why not allow this?<br>

This is allowed (though I haven't checked the details of what happens if you send that while dsp is off).<br>
