Hi there, sorry if this is basic or poorly phrased, I'm very new to Max.

I have a poly~ loading a voice subpatch, in which I would like to use graphical elements like sliders or BEAP objects. It seems like whenever instances of my voice patch are created they always startup with the default values, not the ones I saved in the patch.

Is there a way to automatically save and use these values without having to load all the configuration values manually using loadbang and such?

if you want to have one GUI for all instances, it definetly belongs outside the poly.

it is not clear what you mean with "default" values versus "the ones you saved". if you actually saved something in the poly patcher, it will always be there again next time you load it (or actually even faster, because saving the patcher makes max to reload it everywhere where it is needed (including the poly~ object)

generally, loadbang is the way how to set objects to a default value, whenever you dont want or cannot write the default value into the object itself (such as [+ 0.5])

show us a minimal version of your patch using file menu / copy compressed /

Here is a simplified version of my subpatch. Here I'm using a BEAP filter but I've also tried with other UI elements like sliders. I don't necessarily want to control the sliders and knobs from the main parent patch (although if there was an easy way to do it it'd be nice), I'd be fine with setting the knob and slider values directly in the subpatcher, saving it, and hearing how it sounds after the parent poly~ reloads it.

Okay, I discovered the autopattr object, I'm now placing one in each sub-patcher and naming all the UI objects. Not sure if there is a quicker way but it works
