G,

Don't worry about my health, I recovered. :) It just took me some time to remember about writing to arrays using messages.

But I did wonder, what's more computationally efficient, messages or tabwrite?

I'm starting to hit the processing limit in PDa and need to streamline as much as possible...

Setting of arrays via messages or tabwrite is not very fast in general. Depending what you are doing, the fastest solution would probably be to preload the waveshaping functions and interpolate between them. Really depends ..

In general control rate processing in PDa is rather slow because it is not integer optimized, so sending a lot of messages around will slow down the machine. Then there are several places where the performance could be improved.

G,

Well, I had a bit of a shock when I found out that tabrwite didn't exist, so I resorted to using messages to set the table values. But I haven't required any kind of precision in the values, so if there have been bugs I haven't noticed. :)

Hi,

I tried to include tabwrite this time, hope your shock was not too deep :) Let me know, ...
