Description
This patcher is essentially the same as the previous
one (07a_Select) – except, a send
(s) and receive (r)
object pair have replaced the patch cord that sends
pitch messages to makenote. To save
space in the patcher, I always use the abbreviated
objects s and r for send
and receive, respectively. Any kind
of message may be sent between a send-receive object
pair. Notice that s and r require a variable
so they can communicate with one another. Here the
variable is named ‘pitch’. In addition to reducing
visual clutter, send-receive pairs have other
important uses like program initialization, mixing,
etc. which will be discussed in future tutorials.
