Found this patch but have no idea what is going on, can someone just explain what is happening in the various areas, of the patch thanks

@lbasavaraju Yes. It is reading a number of arrays to make a sort of music, with [metro]'s doing the timing to control the reads..

I suggest giving the reset button a "send" address like $0-reset and very carefully putting a [r $0-reset] at every receive point, while deleting the cords.
Make a backup first.... and give the button it's send address LAST when you have replaced all the cords, or they will magically all "disappear".
Do the same for the start and stop buttons.
That will clean it up a lot.

Then you can put (move...... cut.. paste) some parts into sub-patches and give them a name that makes sense.
[pd arrays] would be a good start........ put all the arrays, and maybe the messages that create them and their new [r $0-reset] objects into there.
The more you clean it up the more you will see and understand what is going on.
Some areas will "stick out" as having very few outside connections, and can be put into a sub-patch with [inlet] and [outlet] and/or [inlet~] and [outlet~] connections.
In the end it will be obvious how it works.
