A "pack~": pack object for combining mutliple signals. for less cables.

So, there is the pack object and it does not seem to be meant for combining audio signals.

For example stereo. Would be nice to carry one instead of two audio signal cables around until and/or if, a particular is actually needed in separate.

There's some useful stuff along these lines here (see the last post in that thread):

That is an awesome final post in a thread. (Not this post)

Thanks!

it is not only many-in-one, it is nametagging at the same time, which can be very useful to prevent that you stick the wrong type of abstractions together.

for example i use "multicore" for multichannel, for doubleprecision, for filter coefficients and for private types of encoding audio - and for some single-application abstractions even.
i just did it here, too https://cycling74.com/forums/re-patching-old-externals
