Examples

Arguments

index [number]

Each out object requires an index, beginning with 1 , that creates a corresponding outlet on the rnbo~ object in Max. In the exported code, this creates a message tag like the outport object where the tag takes the form out1 , where out refers to the outlet and 1 is the index of that outlet.

Inlets

in1 [bang, number, list]

A bang, number, or list sent to out will be sent out the corresponding outlet of the rnbo~ object.

A RNBO patcher can have multiple out objects with the same index. All messages received by such out objects will be output from the same outlet and given the same tag in the exported code.

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 outlet of the rnbo~ object in Max.

index [number]

Each out object requires an index, beginning with 1 , that creates a corresponding outlet on the rnbo~ object in Max. In the exported code, this creates a message tag like the outport object where the tag takes the form out1 , where out refers to the outlet and 1 is the index of that outlet.

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.

Dynamic Attributes

These attributes can be modified in the code during execution using the set object

in1 [bang, number, list]

A bang, number, or list sent to out will be sent out the corresponding outlet of the rnbo~ object.

A RNBO patcher can have multiple out objects with the same index. All messages received by such out objects will be output from the same outlet and given the same tag in the exported code.
