is there a convenient way to store/recall presets in pattrstorage using symbols/ characters as arguements?

i know this is a stretch, but if there isn't then I have to write a coll that stores symbols as indices and #s as elements, which is pretty sloppy and i would need to save them for each piece.

pattrstorage-symbols

You might still need to store them in a coll or menu for recall purposes...

You might want to look at the p.storage abstraction which enables storing

presets as symbols. You can also edit the symbols and presets in a number

You might want to look at the p.storage abstraction which enables storing
presets as symbols.  You can also edit the symbols and presets in a number
of ways.  You can get it here:

ok, so i stole the pelado method and used the umenu's # output (thanks buddy.) Just remember to set the output and then bang it, as I don't think umenu has a convenient way to just output a given index.

does anyone know how many presets pattrstorage can hold? I have #s going into the thousands I'm gonna see if it dies or not.

Not sure, but I do know that it can hold thousands of pattrs with dozens of presets, so it seems to scale up pretty well.

Let us know if you hit a limit, I'm sure people will be interested to know.
