Poly~, patch becomes mon if I use selector~ inside poly patch

Dear All:

I am working on a poly synthesizer but encounter a strange problem, so I simplify it and found out that the polyphonic synth works just fine with only one oscillator inside. But if I use a selector~ inside the poly~ patch and put a few different waveforms as options, the patch becomes mono.

Any one knows why?

Please help thanks..

Hi. I found out the reason, it seems like every time I input a selector's index (first inlet of selector). Only the selector in the first voice is turned on. Other haven't been selected. So how can I use one input on the main patch to control all the selector inside the poly~?

Many thanks

sounds like you need to send 'target 0' first. that will send messages to all voices. (i didn't open your patch though)
