My objective is to develop a few synth instruments for a generative composition. These must be polyphonic in order for the melodic phrasing to flow and not have new notes interrupt those that were triggered before.
I've learned about BEAP's Poly4 object and while it works, the way the Help file says to run 4 identical synths in parallel seems really inefficient. There's also Mark Harris' excellent example that combines BEAP with poly~ (https://goo.gl/UsWzQi)
I've had some success with both options but don't know which approach will be easiest to iterate with BEAP modules (as I build the entire synth). Also, which is the best in terms of performance and stability in Max? I'm using this for an installation that needs to run for weeks on end so it has to be rock solid.
Please offer any advice you can.
