Native Pd Objects
- SEND MESSAGES WITHOUT PATCH CORDS - abbreviation:
SEND USING [SEND] OR MESSAGE? DYNAMIC SEND?
INLETS:
None. Data can be inputted to the [receive] object using the [send] object or by creating a Pd 'send' command in a message box. The [receive] object accepts any atom type as input.
Consider this:
One - [send] accepts a single argument (text, not numbers) which is a 'name'. A [send] object corresponds to all [receive] objects of the same name.
ARGUMENTS:
Now consider this:
Externals and other object libraries
OUTLETS:
None - sends messages to a corresponding [receive] of the same name.
[streamout~]
[send13~]
[sendlocal]
[dist]
[sendOSC]
EXAMPLES:
In this example, the message box contains a Pd command which effectively sends the value of the variable ($1) to either 'dave' or 'hans'.
[shoutcast~]
[netdist]
[system]
And to complicate things a little more, and offer some interesting functionality, consider the following:
with creation argument

SEE ALSO:
In this example, I have created a single routine which acts as a 'dynamic' send object. The variable ($1) in this message box is replaced by the incoming 'symbol'.

There is a lot of information available about [send] and [receive], but that means there's lots to know! Open the abstraction below to learn more...
