hey ive got like 30 banfs that are trigerd when certain thigs are met. i was just wondering if there was a way to trigger something only when all of the bangs are on not just if one is?

would it just be a very long if statment?

mutiple-bangs

Sounds like a complex system, depending on what you are using the bangs for you can filter them so that they assign a value of 1 for each bang to a series of parallel number boxes. Add them together using [+ ] objects with the output = number of bangs received, then a single if statement [if $i1 == (total number of bangs) then 1 out1]. This will output only when the number = number of bangs i.e. when all bangs are triggered.

Hope this helps, if you provide more information as to what the system does it may be possible to provide a more detailed/applicable answer.

Bangs are single messages, they can not convey the difference between on and off states as, for example, the [toggle] object can. If you are using something like [select] to trigger these bangs you might want to switch to something like [==] or one of the other comparison objects, or the [if] object. If you turn these bangs into on/off messages (perhaps 1 and 0) then you can sum the output using [pak] and [zl sum] and check to see if the total is equal to the number of inlets you have. Here's a tiny example:

hey guys, in theory what your suggesting would work. but with 44 bangs it will randomly every now and then click the bang they were all supposed to equal to so it works prematurely. how do i avoid this?
