I just noticed what seems to be a bug in pattrstorage. If @outputmode is set to 1, updated pattr values are not output once, but twice:

Bug report

Summary:

pattrstorage @outputmode 1 cause output twice

Steps to Reproduce:

Click toggle, watch max window in this patch:

Expected Results:

I'd expect to see "test 1/0" printed once...

Actual Results:

...but it's always printed twice

Regression:

Mac TiBook 1GHz OSX 10.4.4 MaxMSP 4.5.6

Notes:

This cause problems in Jamoma (www.jamoma.org) as any changes of parameters, and in particular ramps to new values, become more CPU hungry than they need be. If it is simple to fix, I'd appreciate if an incremental update of pattrstorage could be maid publicly available, as I know this problem is affecting a number of users. Thanks for looking into it.

Best, Trond
