[spigot] in abstraction control inlet which also takes control float to [switch~]?
In general, I try to only send controls to things which are on, yes, but I have not had major issues when that still happens. This probably depends more on what the abstractions are doing and, in the case of readsf~ and spatialization algorithms, switch~ has a much greater impact. Don't overly optimize at the beginning. :) > On Dec 9, 2021, at 10:22 AM, pd-list-requ...@lists.iem.at wrote: > > Message: 2 > Date: Thu, 9 Dec 2021 01:22:11 -0800 > From: "Scott R.
