for some reason Reactivation stops either sending data or pd stops processing it at some point. Other times just the UI wont update the number atoms that are receiving the (x, y) position, but it does still actually get data because it affects the output (which is going to ableton live)

anyone know why this happens?

have you got lots of GUI objects being updated constantly? pd doesn't like that. Either remove your gui objects, or else put some sort of speedlim object before them so they don't have to update too much.

even number boxes, are very inefficient and will eat up your cpu resources.

yeah, that is what it was.
