Switching patches


#21

Thanks! Completely missed that preferences option.


#22

Hi there, I am a new user, just got my device a couple of days ago and was curious about trying to rig this up. I followed the instructions as well as I could and built an identical patch as what the user in the link used, but I'm a little lost about setting the controller object to the subpatch I made that allows program change to access a patch list. What do I need to enter in the controller objects preferences? Is it a path to the file? Sorry, I'm a noob, but I would love this type of functionality currently while a more elegant solution is being worked on.
Thanks for your time and patience.
If there's a place in the manual that I can read about this, it's ok to direct me there instead of typing a response.


#23

I've explained the controller objects a bit more here https://sebiik.github.io/community.axoloti.com.backup/t/how-to-use-controller-object/910

sorry, not in the manual, I added in 1.0.6 but have not got around to adding to manual yet.

we do need an example as well. i'll see if I can get time to do either a program change to either do preset or patch loading as an example.

(I developed and was using this for the Push objects I was working on, but have not released, hence why I didn't have an example to include with the release)


#24

Sorry for the late answer. You have probably have it sorted by now, but yeah, I put in a relative path to the controller patch. Like this in my case: "../../../../Users/hkkdr/Documents/axolotiPatches/Controller" (where "Controller" is the name of the patch)


#25

Id actually recommend an absolute path for controller patches... so that regardless of patch location it will be found.
(relative will work most of the time, assuming you always put your patches in the same place, but if you start opening patches from URLs or your downloads folder it will probably fail)
