Is there a way to turn off the dsp when you switch from one tab to another using patcher tabs?

You can insert active object into patchers and bang message

depending on what you want when that patcher gets active.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, the tabbed patchers also have embedded patchers that when they get opened trigger the [active] object to send 0. What I'm looking for is some way to know when a specific tab has been selected.

You can still manage to do that using active object and

a bit of logic. Why should you use sel 0 ?

You want to trigger switch whenever one tab gets activated.

Subpatchers have nothing to do with that, unless you place

active object inside to again perform switching.

If you want to explicitly know name of the opened Tab,

place patcherargs object inside, and trigger when

tabs.mov

Use sel 1 and perform switching.

patcher becomes active.


Thanks SA! That video was tremendously helpful!
