Hi Joe (and Frank),
Here's as far as I got, including the referenced Rj patches. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/961695/graintests2.zip
(Note - this uses, by permission, an adaptation of a patch built for Granita by Lorenzo Sutton; I'm hoping to use makepoly to help make this more flexible and polyphonic with him.)
See grain.pd as the abstraction I'm trying to use and grain_poly as the file calling it.
But you can try the same thing with s_buzz, for instance.
Thanks to everyone for the help and advice.
Peter

Hi Peter, What abstraction are you trying to use? Frank would obviously be best person to answer your question as he made it. Can you attach the patch so I can have a look? Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe, Okay, I'm now certain that what's going wrong is entirely in the abstraction being made polyphonic - and it isn't, as I thought, u_dispatch with symbols or lists; that's fine.
For instance, if I replace the example for u_makepoly, using s_buzz in place of s_rhodey, I get similar answers. So I must not entirely understand what prerequisite there is for the patch being made polyphonic. I tried to ape s_rhodey before, adding two inlets and one signal outlet (two signal outlets could be used for stereo, of course), and adding:
- u_dispatch in order to pass additional arguments (beyond the
two-float list processed as the note event, etc.) 2. u_loader to instantiate the patch itself
But maybe I'm missing another step?
