hello list, I'm wondering if there is the need of a new object in pd....
there is one problem in patching: often, someone need some repetition of objects, or group of objects, and their connections (e.g.: making a data seqencer, or some routing matrix, or multiple instances of a "foo").
for example some piece of code in a subpatch has to be repeated many times, in front of a route, or select, a mixer or whatever, and you have to copy+paste many objects and connect manually together.
I know, exists dyn~, but it doesn't offers the same flexibility as classic-patch-editing concept.
what do you think of a naw type of object, that can act like a subpatch (or abstraction) does, and provide yet multiple inlets for controlling N instances of that subpatch? is this (already) possible to do? perhaps can be made with an external...?
ciao
