Tutorial 5Fundamentals:Turning signals on and offdisables all MIDI objects in the subpatch, too.) The pass~ object silences the output of asubpatcher when it is muted.You can use a selector~ object to choose one of several signals to be passed on out theoutlet, or to close off the flow of all the signals it receives. All MSP objects that areconnected in a signal flow between the outlet of a begin~ object and an inlet of a selector~object (or a gate~ object) get completely disconnected from the signal network when thatinlet is closed.Any of these methods is an effective way to play selectively a subset of all the MSP objectsin a given signal network (or to select one of several different networks). You can havemany signal networks loaded, but only enable one at a time; in this way, you can switchquickly from one sound to another, but the computer only does processing that affectsthe sound you hear.See Alsobegin~mute~pass~pcontrolselector~Define a switchable part of a signal networkDisable signal processing in a subpatchEliminate noise in a muted subpatcherOpen and close subwindows within a patcherAssign one of several inputs to an outlet92
