check up on initialization routine inside of startaudio.maxpat

[equilet]

From @mzed "There’s something weird going on with startaudio.maxpat and max 7. It seems like the led is passing a 1 and then a 0 really quickly to the output. This shouldn’t be happening, so it seems like a Max bug. But, I’m also not sure why the LED is attached to the outlet at all. Or, why the route set object is there."

[equilet]

@mzed -- I think [route set] is ensuring that when [adstatus switch] outputs its state, that the 'set' portion of the 'set 1' or 'set 0' message is turned into a 1/0. [adstatus] also outputs other messages, which can be used for a [umenu]. As for the startwindow flickering LED, I'm not sure I've seen this particular problem. Can you including a patch here that demonstrates the issue?

[mzed]

1) Open 24-basic-sdif.maxpat 2) Click startwindow Expected: Audio starts Result: Audio does not start

In fact, I think it starts and stops instantly.

PS — I’m running CNMAT-CNMAT-MMJ-Depot-ef44fd1 in Max 7, build: 884379c, OS X.X.1

Pretty sure this is a Max bug. Try this:

I see 1, then 0 in the max window.

I tried the bug-patch and I don't get the same behavior. Please DL the fix I implemented for startaudio and LMK if you still have problems. Thanks!

[mzed]

Really? The startwindow message is entirely broken for me in the current Max. I reported it to the beta list; maybe I'm just lucky.

The new startaudio looks and works a lot better. Thanks.

Sure thing!
