To make it more beautiful, you could use an abstraction "transl.pd" with these
objects inside:

  "route float"
  
  "select $1"
  
  "f $2"

then make a chain of these:

  "transl a 1"
  
  "transl b 2"
  
  "transl c 3"
  
  ...

I currently cannot type bracket and pipe symbols in my terminal, so
completing the patches above is left as an exercise for interested
readers. ;)

Ciao
