Hi Dan,

This is very much appreciated!

I?m on Catalina (10.15.7). My patches seem to load mostly correctly, but one thing I notice immediately is that any object that flashes when you click it, like buttons or message boxes, stay stuck in the ?flash? color when clicked.

I remember seeing this with 10.14 and Pd 0.51-4. I skipped 10.15 and ad do not see this issue with Pd 0.51-4 or Pd 0.52-0 prelim builds on macOS 11.6.1.

I?m also getting this error, which doesn?t happen with Pd 0.51.4:

soundfiler read: ~/Documents/PD/PD_Patches/Scales/11-31.scl.tab: unknown header format

I haven?t gotten as far as making sound yet, perhaps due to this error.

What is the file format? Is it some custom raw format or a renamed WAVE, etc?

Pd 0.52-0 includes the sound file handling update I did which overhauled a number of things and added support for full AIFF headers and CAF files. The file type can't be detected from the file extension, so it tries to figure out from the header bytes but failed with the error.
