holly cow robin no one can help?

I don't understand what you are trying to do (I'm fairly new at this and have never heard of udmx) - but your array is named $0-mem99 so you need to use to get any information to it - is going nowhere.

I've had a look at the patch and I also didn't really understood what you try to do. However, there are two possibilities to work with arrays/tables:

1. at control rate: for this you can use [tabwrite]and [tabread] to get data in and out, or you can also get data in and out by sending messages to the table with a simple object. There are some more options which can be found in the help-browser.

2. at audio rate: usually [tabwrite~] is used to write audio streams to tables. To read them out, there's a number of options: [tabplay~], [tabread4~], [tabosc4~], among others. Again right-click those objects to open their - usually comprehensive - help patches.

Hope this helps?

try this please.

udmx is this:

arrays and $0 can be tricky, basically run a [loadbang] into [$0] and output that to a numbox or [print], you should get something like 1002. so an array named $0-array will actually be named 1002-array.
i'm also pretty sure that with multiple instances of an abstraction that's set up like this, it just counts up so first created patch will have 1002-array, next will have 1003-array, etc, even though within the abstraction they're all $0-array.

yes i know that but somehow its not working

i guess its the tricky part karmacoma

ok so i got it working so far badly...
but i have some difficulty in sending a value to the array now not reading from though...
can you help

I got kind of stuck on the $0 arrays, and then figured them out - so I might be able to help you on that even if I don't understand your patch. Just explain what you are trying to send to where and I'll see what I can do.... Also you might try getting rid of all he $0 arguments to see if that really is the problem.

ok simon2 thanks have you donwloaded the archive.zip
its the buggy patch?

i want to do this:
16 sliders that read their values from different mem.txt files stored in the hardrive.
also have them ready in UI that sends the values read from the txt to the sliders....

ok - I think that could be done more simply than in your patch - though I like the flashing lights ...so is this what you need?

• set sliders
• slider values stored to text file
• load text file
• sliders move

if that's all you need - or if that would be a start - I'll do it tonight.
I've got to go to work now...

what's controlling the sliders? Do you need midi in?

what is the output? where is it going?

when a new file is loaded does it jump to the new values or move smoothly?

hi
thanks alot simon2
i would like some midi in for sure and out
thats where the files will go

as for for the jump i would make a smooth value over some defined time i used LINE i guess
thanks alot simon2

ok - I hope this is close to what you are looking for - it's useful for me anyway so nothing's lost. I didn't use arrays - just lists and textfile - midi cc numbers and channels might need changing - everything seems to work. I haven't tested it with sound - there's a sequencer loading files directly off the hard drive - if you need really precise timing you might have to load files manually - the way it is now is probably a little off.
