I have a good grasp of pattrstorage but have run into an issue with interpolation of presets. I use sliders and dials for continuous interpolation of some parameters. I use toggles and menus for parameters that switch immediately from one state to another. With a menu of programs I might have piano in one preset and slow strings in another. I do not want to interpolate through all the other programs on the menu. Likewise, I have menus of chords as well as toggles that turn various transformation objects on and off. When I am interpolating between presets a & b, I want the continuous UIs to do their thing while switches and menus go immediately to their values saved in preset b. The desired musical effect is a change to new orchestration and harmony while things like volume, spatial location and pitch range (rslider) ease into place. I understand about selecting "none" for interpolation mode. This does not work for what I am trying to do. I am told that I can link two pattrstorage objects - one for continuous and one for descreet parameters. Does anyone have a simple example of this?

you may choose "table" as an interpolation option, where you can specify the discrete values a toggle should get.

Found solution that works and made a small example.

Thanks Ben. I have absorbed those tutorials including beat factory which is a gem. I am digesting it as the mechanism for parameters in SonoMorphs.

I am familiar with tables + pattr but just posted a simpler solution. See above.

Thanks Gary for pointing me to the wonderful practical-max tutorial.

I tried your patch and it worked fine after reversing the first two messages for "backward". Or did I miss something?
