error message
Whenever I save my patch a few duplicates of this line appears in the max window:
detected out-of-range float value (inf or nan) when writing JSON file, replacing with 0
does anyone know what it means?

The message means what it says.
Somewhere in your patch there is an object trying to save the float value inf (infinity) or NaN (“not a number,” typically infinity/infinity, or infinity/0, or 0/0).
The JSON format used to store Max/MSP patches does not allow inf and nan. So the value was replaced by a zero.

Thanks for the reply Peter.
These error messages are not explicitly associated with an object; there is no object corresponding with the message in the max window, so it is hard to identify the origin(s) of the error.
I guess I could save the patch as text and do a search for zeros in a text editor, but it’s a very large patch (there are plenty of objects with zero in them, like [sel 0] )– any suggestions as to how to trace the source of the errors?
