I want to make a sequencer where I can specify the range.

For example, say I have a 16 step sequencer. I want to play the range of steps from 3 to 11, and have the playing ping-pong (aka updown). How would I force counter to do this? And still have control over the range, like being able to change it from 3-11 to 5 through 9.

Basically, I would love a counter that can change the first step since the counter can specify the highest step in my sequencer. Would I need to patch up something that would continuously reset the current step to whatever I enter into my 1st step number box?

Is there an object like counter, but with that 1st step built in?

counter-count-range

You could change the range to get different lengths and then add a 

constant number to the output to get the starting position.

counter, count range?
