Matrix challenge part 2

[soundmind]

In this challenge I have created a matrix in which each cells caption can be user selectable from a selector of pre determined text fields and use a switches seq as a clock to determine the value of each step in time. It seems to work ok for the most part but i sense some instability in my method and something tells me there is a better way to do this. Here is the pat for anyone who cares to have a look. Thanks.

can you precise where you have instability, cause as we don't know what you want to achieve it's not easy..
btw, nice workaround for the caption .i feel you'll quickly be a matrix master..

thanks for the reply,
The instability i describe is sometimes the cells output value does not reflect its caption value which i thought may have been an error with the 0-1 vs 1-8 scale change but I think it may be related to the bug i reported in the matrix module thread because it happens when selecting a different preset with different matrix lengths than the previous. The bug seems very unpredictable so it is hard to pin point. But, basically I will have different events like a sample, etc. triggered by different matrix output values by the a=b module. But, when i switch from a preset with a 8 cell matrix to a different preset with a 16 cell matrix, the preset doesn't "remember" the values in the other half of the matrix length and as a result does not trigger the sampler but what is strange is that the cells will show the correct caption. I hope this all makes sense.

yes, i suppose your diagnostic is good , there is a correlation with the preset and storing problem..
( i've also think about your scale sub patch , can be replace by multiply by 8 module..?)
but I'm sure martin will find a solution ...

[soundmind]

thank you for the suggestion. I didn't think of using a simple multiply module for the scale but it works great. nicely done.

yep, there is a known problem about stored preset and size change

i'll work on it for the next release
