@Dizzy-Dizzy Before saving and closing your patch, you have to send manually a [save $1( message to right inlet of all pp.objects of interest (where $1 is replaced by a "preset"number of your choice).
When you re-open the patch, you have to send a [recall $1( message to the same inlets.

Amazing, thanks got it working! Always learning something new...

I'd like to use pp.fft-partconv~ on a long impulse response but I get the message "pp.fft-partconv-st~: IR length exceeds buffer". Do either of the creation arguments control the buffer length? Sorry for my laziness.

edit: OMG I am so lazy, what is my problem? It took 30 mins to find the answer, here's how:

• use text editor to search pp.fft-part*.* for the error message

• find subpatch that prints the message

• look at the condition that makes it print

• trace backwards on some of the receives that could make the condition true, e.g. $0-nparts

• notice that one factor in $0-nparts is $0-max-blocksize. Gee, that happens to resemble the name of one of the creation arguments.

• try it. Bingo!

this is such a great collection, thank you for sharing with all of us

i'm fairly new to Pd, was wondering how difficult it might be to create a 7.1 preset in the spat8 patch? (ie Front L, C, R. Side L R. Rear L R, and sub?)

I tried just moving the speakers into position which worked but when I save and re-open it reverts to octophonic.

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
