And another use case - non-real-time (batch) audio rendering as in csound
where you just allocate instances as you need 'em. This definitely needs
doing.

recently, I was trying to figure out a way of doing a simple SuperCollider recursion code in Pd

"var function = { |i|

var osc = {SinOsc.ar(i, function.(i - 1))};
if(i >= 160, osc, 0)};
{function.(170) ! 2}.play)"

And the idea (instead of dynamic patching) was to have a method for [clone] to change the number of instances.

yeah, definitely needs doing ;)

cheers
