in
Examples
Arguments
index [number]
Each in object requires an index number, beginning with 1 , that creates a corresponding inlet on the rnbo~ object in Max. In the exported code, this creates a message tag like the inport object where the tag takes the form in1 , where in refers to the inlet and 1 is the index of that inlet.
Outlets
out1 [bang, number, list]
A bang, number, or list sent to an inlet is sent out the outlet of the corresponding in object.
A RNBO patcher can have multiple in objects with the same index. The same message will be received on all instances of such in objects.
Fixed Attributes
These attributes must be set in the object box and determine the behavior of the object at runtime.
comment [symbol]
Defines the hint text shown when mousing over this inlet of the rnbo~ object in Max.
index [number]
Each in object requires an index number, beginning with 1 , that creates a corresponding inlet on the rnbo~ object in Max. In the exported code, this creates a message tag like the inport object where the tag takes the form in1 , where in refers to the inlet and 1 is the index of that inlet.
meta [symbol]
A JSON formatted string containing metadata for use by the exported code.
@meta can be used to pass on any information for custom needs via the exported description.json file. This has potential use for hardware mappings/routings, UI generation, advanced toolchain integration, etc.
