I have a strange issue. I have 4 separate LFO's. I wanted to name each slider something different but it literally changes all of the sliders to that name I changed one slider to.

So LFO 1 frequency I named filter cutoff
LFO 2 now has the frequency slider with the name Filter cutoff.

Its maddening because nothing else in the session does this. All the parameters can be tweaked separately so at least thats good. Any suggestions?

Are the sliders each a part of an LFO abstraction that you are using in a parent patch? If so, that would be the expected behavior because the slider and its name belongs to that one shared abstraction.

If not, please post your patch so we can take a look.

@undothis As @jameslo says....... when you save an abstraction all the copies are changed at that time.
You need to use arguments for your abstraction to make each copy different when it is loaded.
Something like [lfo 1] [lfo 2] etc. with the faders named fader-$1 in the abstraction and a receive name fader-$1-receive for example. Then you can send to fader-1-receive and fader-2-receive.......

Thanks so much jameslo and whale-av ~

You both are right they are shared abstractions. Ill try that makes sense
