Pattrstorage subscribemode Questions

Duffield's icon

By default with subscribemode set to active in a [pattrstorage], all objects are unsubscribed. Is there a way to subscribe all by default and manually unsubscribe? I ask because it becomes tedious to name every object that I want within a specific [pattrstorage]'s scope when there are only two objects I want it to ignore.

Perhaps there's another way to go about this that isn't subscribe mode?

My ultimate goal is to save the state of the unsubscribed ones in a [pattrstorage] in a totally separate subpatcher and bind them using pattrmarker. This allows me to change the state of all objects with exception to a couple ones that I want in an isolated scope.

Here is a basic idea of what I'm trying to do, but my larger patch is much much more complex:

Seeing as this is 10 years old, I'm not exactly replying to the original poster (but if you're still wondering Duffield try this!). But rather I came here wondering the same thing and didn't find the answer. But then figured out something that works for me, so I thought I'd post my solution for other seekers.
