However don't rule out audio for speeding up the crossfade itself. Attached is
a very fast way of interpolating two 64-element parameter lists using audio
operations in a subpacth, that is suspended after each interpolation run using
a [switch~] object. Drive this at your desired metro-speed and you have a nice
and tidy interpolation system. By using a different block size in the subpatch
and bigger tables, you can also extend this to bigger preset list sizes. And it
still is very fast - much faster than if you would use a message based approach
which involves list unpacking and so on.
