Using poly~ -- question about file system paths
Posted: Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:23 pm
A naive user question:
If I use a poly~ in a patch (to get a polyphonic Max Live instrument), I have to specify a patch file name, which gets loaded in the poly~ object.
The documentation mentions 'the patcher containing the object must already exist and be found in the Max/MSP search path."
My question -- is it sufficient for the patcher named in poly~ to reside in the same directory as the patcher containing the poly~?
How is this handled in bundled/distributed M4L patches?
