Delay/Read in a patcher talking to Delay/Write in parent

#1

Is there some magic to doing this? I assume the patcher stuff has some namespace it uses when compiling. I have a patch for the noodling thread which uses a single Write in the parent and a bunch of reads (8+) to scan through the single parent. I would love to pack that functionality into a patcher, but trying it gives me this error:

is there some magic way to refer to a Write in the parent?

you need to refer to the delay using 'file type' semantics
i.e.

../mydelay

its not shown in the delay examples (help) , but it is shown in the table examples, same syntax

EDIT: hang on a sec, I thought this worked for delays, but not working here... I'm testing now, perhaps only tables have this :frowning:

EDIT2: panic over does work, just a typo on my part :smile:

We need a karma system! Thanks @thetechnobear I knew it was something simple.
