Hi, Herr Reinhard Gretzki,

of course you can also connect one outlet to several inlets. (you have to draw them one by one). But still, the messages would be sent in the order of the creation of the "cables".

As mentioned earlier, this is not defined and maybe will not stay that way forever, but in practice it is like I said.

So if you draw the connection to the left inlet before the connection to the right inlet, also in your abstraction the message will be sent to the left inlet before the right.

Marius.

Hi,

in jMax there is a possibilty of making many patch cords from one outlet to several inlets by clicking on the outlet and then shift-hold and click on the respective inlets were the cable should go....

In pd this is not possible, so i wondered if this is because the connections would be unreliable in execution(the old "not specificated execution order" case) ? But if they would be connected to several inlets of an abstraction, the inlets there would be executed from right to left...or am i mistaken and this is only the case for the outlets ?!

Thanks for clarification

Reinhard
