Ah, I see. But hm, was it really me who shared this Function ?
However, I can sketch how to do it: with Pbind, as you noticed, you don't have Synth objects language-side. But you can adapt the Function by replacing the get/getn methods by terms that do that messging on the nodeIDs (not all too difficult, you can look up the source code of get/getn).
Then you would need a tracker that indicates the current nodeIDs, e.g. by updating in a List. This can be built into the Pbind, I did something some years ago, but can't find it in the list archive right now ...
Then the getter can be applied at any time on all List items. As always there can't be a 100% guarantee that the state indicated in the language represents the server state, but practically it should suffice.
Hope that helps
All the best

hi daniel,
I'm not really interested in the default values. what I want is to asynchronously take snapshots of the events values as they unfold. so far I'm using this function that I believe you shared with the list a while ago:
var get_control_values = { |synth|
var event = ();
var desc = SynthDescLib.global[synth.defName.asSymbol];
desc.notNil.if {
desc.controls.do {
|ctl|
if( ctl.name != '?', {
if( ctl.numChannels > 1, {
synth.getn(ctl.name, ctl.numChannels, {
|v|
event.put(ctl.name, v)
})
},
{
synth.get(ctl.name, {
|v|
event.put(ctl.name, v)
} );
});
} );
};
};
event;
};
a = Synth(\default);
b = get_control_values.(a)
b.postln;
now with Pbind I know the SynthDef's name but I don't know how to obtain a
handle to the Synth.
thanks a lot for helping out.

Hi,
if you're not setting with Pbind there will be the default args and you can
get them like this:
SynthDescLib.global[\default].controlDict.collect(_.defaultValue)
// equivalent
SynthDescLib.global[\default].controlDict.collect { |x| x.defaultValue }
// or
SynthDescLib.global[\default].controls.collect { |x| x.name -> x.defaultValue
}
So there's no need to track the synths (except you're somehow controlling
them otherwise)
Regards
Daniel
