I wanted physical knobs, buttons, and sliders to control my Pure Data modular synth, so I got an AKAI MIDI Mix. It is a reasonably priced controller with 24 knobs, 9 sliders, and 26 usable buttons. Unfortunately, AKAI did not fully document the MIDI Mix's MIDI support. Fortunately, people on the Internet collaborated to reverse engineer the MIDI Mix and document a communications protocol for it. I've written an object (midimix.pd) based on that document to use the MIDI Mix with Pure Data. The help file (midimix-help.pd) explains how to install the MIDI Mix and use it in Pure Data. You can download the files here:

Pd's default text size is too small for me, so I'm almost always zoomed in on Pd patches. I believe I've seen a similar issue with the scroll bars in other Audiolab objects.

posted in technical issues • read moreI'm using [savestate] to save the state of a toggle in an abstraction. If that abstraction is in the main patch, it works properly. If that abstraction is imbedded within another abstraction, the state isn't saved and restored properly. This seems like a bug to me. Is there a way to save the state of a toggle that is in an abstraction inside of another abstraction?
I've attached a zip with three files that demonstrate the problem. test_save_toggle.pd is the main patch. It has two instances of the test_save_toggle2.pd abstraction. If you set the toggle in one of those and save the patch, the state of the toggle is saved correctly. The main patch also has two instances of the test_save_toggle3.pd abstraction which only contains an instance of test_save_toggle2.pd. If you set the toggle in one of those, the state of the toggle is not save correctly.
