BTW, [vstplugin~] can now be compiled for Apple M1, with a plugin bridge for 64-bit Intel plugins! Unfortunately, I don't have access to an M1 (yet), so I couldn't really test it myself. One kind soul has done it for me and said that it seemed to work, but I would love to hear more reports!

If you are using Apple Mail, as I am, it doesn't natively handle Mailman digest messages from the list. If you hit reply, it then replies to the *entire* digest ala "Re: P-List Digest, Vol..." and thus creates a new thread instead of building upon the previous by using the same subject line. Wh

I agree, this is an established aspect of patching in Pd and changing it is not likely possible at this point. A positive reinforcement for using trigger is that it's simply more readable. I also admit to using fanning when I know order isn't as important for that case, I feel like often these

It's a bit more tricky. Fanning control outlets are not a problem per se, only if those connections go to one or more *hot* control inlets. Fanning out to cold control inlets is perfectly fine; some people still like to use [trigger], but technically it doesn't make a difference. Also, fanning
