Hello! I'm having some trouble getting the line object to work. What am I doing wrong here? Why am I getting the same readout from the counter and after the line object?

First of all, as you are counting from 1 to 16, I guess you are using line to have a ramp between those numbers so you should use [line 0.] to deal with floats (notice the argument).

Also, if you look at the number box which sets the metro speed, you connected it to the ramp inlet of [line] but your [bucket] object (which outputs your counter values in pack) updates the line ramp with values between 1 and 16 ms...

Here is a modified version of your patch.

Best.

Why yes, that's a much better way of doing it :)

Still, why didn't the line work? I've been able to use it when doing glissandos on cycle~ with no problems. What did I miss here?

Never mind, my questions have been answered! Thanks!

There were a couple of reasons. One was that line wasn't set up to do floating point output, the other was you weren't packing quite the right things to line. Try this:
