Dear Phil Apologies in advance for my stupid questions, but … If — and it is a big “if” — you have only a small number of poly configurations to switch between and if as you say you are only doing it when no audio is being output, can’t you do this with a wrapper around multiple [poly] objects? Attached an example abstraction for switching between two different voice counts (it ignores out-of-range voice counts, but it might better take a configuration number at its right inlet); it stops all notes before switching to the new voice count, but that is not a problem in your use case, right? I am pretty sure you have thought of this already — almost certain, in fact. That wouldn’t do if you were dynamically creating/destroying arbitrarily many voices, but then you could create/destroy [poly] objects, too, right? That is not to say that being able to change voice count in [poly] wouldn’t be a useful feature, but if it were to be implemented, why not do it in a non-glitchy way (i.e. don’t clear the object, and stop the notes only for the voices removed when reducing the voice count)? What kind of glitch did you have in mind, anyway? Best m -- matthew brandi | 020 8882 4616
