I should mention, I have manually specified these number2 atoms to send and recieve over say "table1_i1_s" and "table1_i1_r" respectively. I want to know how I can get these names as symbols and parse the number after i into floats to put into tabwrite as an index to be written to. Or if a better solution exists I'm all ears

Hi all. I've been experimenting with pd for years but have only recently made time and effort to really get into it.

Currently I'm working on an abstraction for a 32 step sequencer. It sends 4 values of 0-127 on each step, for some fun modular programmability. I was successful using a pretty intense method writing to tables with messages, but I feel there must be a more elegant method I'm missing.

Is it possible to get the name of the sent or recieve symbol names specified in the properties of a number atom? This would allow me to easily retrieve the index of a number2 object to pipe into the tabwrite object.

Thanks!
