reviving this topic...
Cant'say enough thank you's for sharing your patch and explaining what you did. I was learning Pd a few years back and just stopped studying. Now I'm back on track and this is helping me figure out lots of stuff.
>can't stress enough though. KEEP IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE.
this is just a great piece of advice, since what you did on your live set it's way complex, but made it in a simple way, and maybe that is your great trick. I needed to read that
Now I'm digging your patch in order to make it work with another one (to control only beats) and everything put together in a Monome. Hopefully I'll achieve good results, and for sure will post here.
