When you send a value down an Input, & disconect the item sending said value, the value stays in the Input.

E.g: In lalo/my Ratio to Int Value module, I right now have it turned on. If you disconnect the "1" from the Boolean, the 1 is still in the Input, not reset to 0 as I would expect.

I suppose this could be helpful sometimes. However, if someone were to drag it into their toolbox and use it later, all kinds of havic could happen. There would be inputs with values that the programmer didn't assign. I always assumed modules to be like subroutines; and when variables (Inputs) are declared (Inputs with nothing presently connected), I'd assume they'd be NULL or 0. When I look at a schematic, I expect the values I see to be the loaded values.

WORKAROUND: Use Onload, Sample&Hold, Switch to bump a default value, but that could be a pain in other ways...

cheers

So, I'll assume for now this can affect all inputs not just Input.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
