subpatch instances and buffer~ management

cirric's icon

So, I'm working on a sample playback patch that will have several instances of the same subpatch that I want to have play a different sample.

I'm not sure what the best technique for assigning each subpatch it's own buffer~, how could this be effectively communicated down to each subpatch from the toplevel patch?

thanks,

Probably ... I haven't fully R'd TFM up to that point, but from a cursory skimming wasn't sure if it was appropriate for a drum sampler thing.

I'll pursue the poly~ path, then.

Patrick Delges: That's what I was thinking at first, but poly~ might be design-wise better for expandability to an indefinite number of voices, and code reuse.
