[PD] bypassing effects

[Marco Donnarumma]

Hi,
another good strategy - suggested me by Husk - is to cut and paste. this
mean: you have your abstraction or subpatch containing the effect guts and a
drop-down menu where you can choose other effects (or any other selection
tool). When you choose one you basically trigger few messages to Pd telling
to cut the current effect subpatch and attach the new selected one.
This way you can also save some cpu usage and keep your main patch not
overcrowded.

take a look in the help browser:
manuals > pd-msg/ > 1.msg_and_patch > 0.all_msg.pd

cheers
