Re: [PD] Strange bug in my patch

2010-02-26 Thread Roman Haefeli
The patch uses dynamic creation of objects and when dynamically creating signal-processing objects or abstractions, the dsp graph is not automatically recompiled (I hope I use the right words here). Recompilation of the graph can be forced by switching dsp off and on again. This is a known issue

I remember a bug in PD that if you create an instance of an abstraction (even by hand with ctrl+1) which contains dsp objects, its content doesn't start doing dsp processing until one more object is created (i.e. it is not added to the dsp chain when it should). If more than one object
