Me too! It is now clear that these objects are all releated.
"snake~ in", "snake~ out"
Actually, I would prefer [snake~ pack] and [snake~ unpack] because for me the meaning of "in" and "out" is ambigious. "pack" and "unpack", on the other hand, are pretty obvious.
Alternatively, we might just as well use [mc~ pack], [mc~ unpack], [mc~ split], etc. to save some keystrokes :-)

Yes, join/split would be translatable, whereas translating "snake" can be slippery. I do think it is amusing, btw, and slides nicely next to sigmund~ and moses.
In any case, I am really liking now that "snake~" feels like an object family, that refers to the kind of signal, and you can say things like "snake~ in", "snake~ out", or even "snake~ split", "snake~ join" , or further, "snake~ rotate/flip", "snake~ encode/decode"

OK... now I'm hesitating between "snake~ in", "snake~ out" and "snake~ tap" or "join~", "split~", and "tap~"... Former is more colorful (and crowds the namespace less). Latter might be easier for non-native English speakers to deal with? cheers Miller On Wed, Jan 25, 2023 at 01:36:24AM +0100, Christof Ressi wrote: > > Isn't "mux~/demux~" closest to what's actually happening? > Unfortunately, these are also zexy objects ;-) > > On 24.01.2023 11:52, Max wrote: > > Isn't "mux~/demux~" closest to what's actually happening? > > when "joining" two signals, I wouldn't expect them to be running in > > parallel but being mixed together. > > > > m. > > > > > > On 24.01.23 02:50, Miller Puckette via Pd-dev wrote: > > > So merging (hmm) some ideas from Fede and Dan, maybe "join~/split~", and > > > a new tap~ object that allows you to pick channels out > > > specifically.
