[PD] best practice

[Chris McCormick]

Hi,
I'd like your opinions on the best way to store a single value in a GOP patch. For example, I have a GOP patch which has a slider in it. I instansiate this patch in a higher level patch and whenever I load the patch the slider is reset. Let's say my slider has a name of (for example) $1-slider. So when i instantsiate it i do it like this [gop-patch myname] and then if i want to set the slider position i can do [s myname-slider]. What I am trying to figure out is how I can make a list of slider-names (such as "myname-slider") and have their values stored and recalled each time i load the patch up. It feels to me like this should be easy, but I can't think of the clean way to do it. Any ideas are appreciated.
This is for a series of patches for stored-automation and sequencing I am building.

Kind Regards,

Chris.
