Is meta patching possible?


#1

Is it possible to create a patch or script that creates patches or controls the routing of patches? I'd like to use the Axoloti to allow users to place new modules and connect them dynamically.

This is something that is in my queue for future development. There isn't a clean way to do this right now really. You could write some external script to generate patch file xml, but that would be pretty tedious.

The code generator pipeline is in the process of becoming more isolated from the user interface. Eventually we'll have some kind of API that can drive the code generator independently of the user interface and then people will be able to patch more dynamically and create alternate interfaces more easily.

Thanks, it's good to have a definitive answer on this. I'm highly looking forward to this feature because one of my imagined uses for this device is to experiment with ways to enable users to do visual programming using hardware.
