I’m experiencing a strange behavior with pattr’s bindto attribute.
I’m using pattr for a routing-system.

I have a [pattr value] and a [pattr @bindto ::OSC::value @invisible 1] in two different p subpatches.

The patch works as expected but very rarely, when loading the patch the binding fails:
pattr: (u737000522): failed to bind to target (::OSC::value).

This is very frustrating, because the error occurs maybe only one in 50 times :(

It’s part of a bigger patch which takes about 20 seconds to load, because of polys~ with many voices (maybe this causes the bug?).

I’ve found a workaround by loadbanging a bindto message instead of using the @bindto attribute.
But still I wonder if someone has an explanation for this error?

I’m using Max 5.1.9

cheers,
jan.
