There is a way to sync data from multiple receives and it is to use the
[buddy] object.  [buddy] waits until it has received data at each inlet and
then outputs everything it received through the corresponding outlet in the
standard right-to-left order.  It might not be a good solution in all cases
since the receive objects need to be in the same patch window as the
[buddy], but I have used it successfully for synchronizing receives within
subpatches.  [buddy] is in pd-extended, but I do not believe it is in pd
vanilla.

Hope this helps,

Michael
