Hi folks,

I'm building a patch (my first proper one) in Pd-vanilla for a sound installation for school. I've had to learn fast as the deadline is Friday morning 09.00 GMT+2.

I'm getting an odd error. One of my subpatches contains a bunch of abstractions which sample the adc input every ~107ms and play back a sound file if the input exceeds a certain threshold.

The actual sample playback mechanism was copied from C05.sampler.oneshot.pd.

Now, when I make noise into my mic, Pd spits out this set of errors in the main window:

$cutoff$1-1: not enough arguments supplied
$phase$1-1: not enough arguments supplied
$cutoff$1-1: not enough arguments supplied

Now in copying the sampler, I changed the names of variables from the format 'cutoff1' to 'cutoff$1-1' so that I could use a unique creation argument for each abstraction (which also corresponds to the arrays containing the sound files).

The abstraction ONLY uses ONE dollarsign, and that's $1.

Any thoughts? I can't really upload my patch for now, sorry - I'll try tomorrow if possible but assume I can't.

...Never mind, just figured it out. Of course I only get it after typing this huge post on my cellphone...
