quick question about embedMessage()

Hey Cycling-gang --

I realize you're in the throes of Max4Live, but does anyone know offhand if there is an upper bound on the number of atoms that embedMessage() can take? I seem to have hit it.

Hi Brad,

It's around 4096 (something like 4094/5 or so). It's not going to change anytime soon, so if you reach that limit, I would suggest you split whatever you have to save in smaller chunks of data.

Best,

Thanks ej!

I already set up the chunking approach. LISP can be a scary thing.
