very well explained, Joachim, thanks!
I thought tigoto jumped to skipInit: and after that there is no code... But it is 'skipping initialization for the code in between.'
In the manual: "Allows an instrument to skip initialization of units according to whether a proposed tie was in fact successful." I'm afraid that did not make this clear for me...now it does.

I was able to implement tigoto in my instrument, based on pvsynth. It works fine now- a great addition to the instruments' capabilities.
