I've got a patch set up like this and it seems that the reference to the MSP buffer doesn't cascade down into gen subpatchers. In otherwords if I double click on the outermost "Buffer table1," I see audio. Other one, not so much. Anyone have solutions to this?

Bump? I feel like this is big enough to be on the radar.

i use genexpr for this reason - referencing feel more logical that way, but no better.

as long as poke/peek/etc. work to reference the master buffer in subpatchers and wherever, there's no reason to have multiple buffers of the same name all over subpatchers. personally i like it this way, it coincides with how code(non-visual programming) should be written(you establish the memory usage once in a main/master function, then all you need is the different read/write methods in different/other areas of your code).

not meaning to argue over it, though(it could very well be more convenient some other way for visual memory), just stating my differing view/opinion :)

@rabid Raja, I'd agree except for modularity and reusability. If I write a two voice sample player in gen, suddenly both my voices have to play from the same buffer if I use subpatching. (which is what I'm doing).

no big deal. Just kinda sucks that I have to copy and paste huge swaths of my code and rename the buffers.
