This is my first PD project, thanks to Dave Merrill for the starter patch and inspiration.

*If this patch already exists online please refer me to where I can find it.*

1) Here is what I'm trying to do:

--Create a patch for Dave Merrill's "DDR-style musical instrument." that will play notes from the cmajor scale when certain pads on the assembly are depressed.
--Dave has already created a patch that interprets signals from the pad
--I am trying to assign these (eight) signals to different oscillators so that when a pad is stepped is on one oscillator plays at a time.

2) Here are the issues I'm having:

--all of the oscillators output continuously when I turn the audio on
--not all of the inlets in cmajorscale_phasor.pd appear to be working in my subpatch (ie I step on a pad and only 4 of the inlets show they have recieved a float)

3) Attached is a patch of what I've come up with so far, as well as the other patches written by Dave Merrill.

Any help would be most appreciated!

Hi Noah,

just some remarks and ideas:
In your patch you had some double [inlet] objects right on top of each other, so you had nearly double the inlets you needed, and only half of those were connected.
In general, construct your patches top-to-bottom rather than left-to-right.
Place the inlets from left to right, because then you see clearly which inlet gets what input from the parent patch.
Have a look at the [line~] objects' help file and also the combination of it with [*~] to make envelopes (see doc/3.audio.examples/A03.line.pd and A04.line2.pd).
There is no need to have several [dac~] objects. Best to have only one and use [throw~] [catch~] or [s~] [r~] to send several signals to it.
I attached an adapted version of your cmajorscale patch.
hope this helps,

Tim

Thanks,

Noah
