<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse:collapse;color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">> is there any option in PD to make complex patches look less messy ?<br><br>not really. What you have to do is be able to design the patches with method, and think about it.</span><div>

I can easily get lost when MAX's chords are not just a straight line explicitly telling you where it's coming from and going to. And hiding chords or patch bits can be a lot like throwing the mess under the carpet.</span></div>

Just do hundreds of subpatches, it can be really good for making you have to think about designing an organized patch, it may be better than being allowed to, lets say, "cheat" and pretend is not messy.</span></div>
