I'm looking for a way to output a bang when an int-box stops its count. It's being driven by a [counter].

Meaning, the int-box will display the count (which varies each time) and bang when stopping...

bang-when-finished-count

what determins the maximum? do you know it before starting counting? if yes just set counter max count and take the bang from there?

or are the counts coming in at a fixed intervals and you want to detect when nothing is coming in anymore?

Simply define the maximum number for counter via its corresponding inlet, then when the count is reached, send it the "clear" instruction and then the new maximum number.

It also gives out a bang when the maximum count is reached, this can be used to trigger the clear command.

Not behind my work computer but that should get you going.

The count is different each time, so I just want to detect when the count has stopped!

Hey! Thanks for the replies!

ULV, upload a patch with the simple part that you need solving , sure it's fixed in no time.

Thanks Jan, this was useful for me too.
