I am working on a patch and I have been dealing with a problem for a while now. I abstracted the problematic part to post here. The fact that it uses the bach library is probably relevant.  

I have a system intended to backtrack through a list of fractions backwards, by increasing with a counter the amount that is to be subtracted from the address (index), so that if it receives address 4, it should retrieve address 3, 2, 1, and stop at 0. The address and the list are received by a bach.nth object, which retrieves the list item at the given address. 

Now, if the system worked correctly, starting with index 4, it should retrieve the elements from the list [1/8  1/4  1/4  1/4] in the following order: 1/4, 1/4, 1/8; that is, the values for addresses 3, 2, and 1. Instead, via the system of automatic iteration, it retrieves the values in the order 1/8, 1/4, 1/4; in other words, backwards. 

Do you perhaps know what the problem may be? If I do the iteration manually, one by one, the thing works. But in the way I'm doing it now, the list arrives backwards, as can be seen in the [prepend append] object that collects the fractions into a list. 

Below is the patcher. I marked the steps, that is, what to press (the address: 4, and the list) with numbers, to specify the order in which they should be pressed.

Hello, I hope you are doing well.

I can no longer run my video patches in full-screen mode in Max 9,1,4. When I press escape, the screen goes black, but nothing displays. It locks, and I can not escape from it by pressing escape again.  After a couple of hours thinking it was my patch, I downgraded to 9.1.2 and full-screen works again.

Does anybody else experience similar problems?

Max has always been stable on my machine but recently it started crashing. I’ve updated Max to 9.1.4 about 2 weeks ago and while I’m not saying the update is the reason but it does line up with when this started happening.

It could very well be my machine, I am running an MacBook Pro M1, 2020 with Tahoe 26.4.1 that is starting to show some signs of aging but again, it has been running Max dependably well.

I’m wondering if anyone has experienced this recently too before I run out and buy a new computer.

I am wanting to use pattrstorage to save the names of files dropped into live.drop in max patches (not a M4L device). If I drop a file into live.drop I see the file name in live.drop's GUI and the file name is sent out the left outlet if it is a file in my searchpath, or the full path is sent if it is a file from outside the searchpath. Works as expected. 

However when I look at pattrstorage's client window or try to store a preset, the data is not displayed or retained. If I open the clientwindow and type the file name (or full path) into the data slot and store a preset, the data is retained and recalled as expected. This also functions with typing the name of the file into the storage slots themselves in the storagewindow. 

I have tried with pattr and autopattr. I have tried with a paired preset object and by sending the store message into pattrstorage. None of these storage methods populate pattrstorage with the data, only typing in the data in the clientwindow or storagewindow will populate pattrstorage. I have also found that after dropping a file and checking the Initial Enable box in the inspector that it is possible to save that file through normal pattrstorage interactions. That file then becomes the only data that pattrstorage will store through normal interactions.

Here is a simple example, does it work for you to save data in a preset (Initial Enable is deactivated, try enabling it after dropping something)? Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

I'm building a Max for Live device that gets placed on multiple audio tracks 

(8-12 instances) and sends OSC data to a Python backend for analysis.

Each instance must send three types of OSC messages:
