I'm using the 'dsp' message to know when the audio has been turned on in dsp status.

Is there a way to know when the audio has been turned off?

The dev forum is for developing C externals.

Sorry, I should have said I am writing an external.

I use the addmethod routine to cause me to be notified when the 'dsp' message is sent.

Is there another message, like 'dspoff' that I can use in exactly the same way?

Or is the only way to set up some kind of polling of the adstatus object?

JKC wrote this a while ago, however I am not sure if it still applies with the new SDK.

addmess((method)foo_dspstate, "dspstate", A_CANT, 0);

You might want to try it anyway:

void foo_dspstate(t_foo *x, long n)
{
    if (n) {
        //dsp has been turned on
    } else {
        //dsp has been turned off
    }
}

Worth a try, but did not work. I'm using 4.6 btw.

I'll have to use the [adstatus switch] external and prepend 'dspstate' to generate the msg to my external.

    class_addmethod(c, (method) foo_dspstate, "dspstate", A_LONG, 0);

Well, if it still works then that's the way to do it...

Yes, of course.... my bad.
It should be declared as A_LONG type.
