Ok i am quite new in MAxMsp so probably i ask easy questions but ok. I have to start playing a soundfile when i get two numbers within given constraints. It are cpordinates of a ball i am tracking. EG: X (horizontal) is between 0 and 100 and Y (vertical) between 0 and 100 (Xand y have different inboxes, they get their values from a separate box) 

Now lets say that you have X is 50 and Y 10, so now i have to start the playback of a soundfile A

Another soundfile has to play within the boundaries of lets say X between 100 and 200 and Y between 0 and 100.

again sorry for asking lame questions but being new with this sofware makes it difficult, i try to master the software this year.

How can i make this possible .

Something like this? (copy the text and in Max choose file -> new from clipboard) If you master Max in a year that will be a serious accomplishment! :)

You might also check out the objects sel, split, change, ==, >, < and scale for starters. I'm sure there are a zillion more elegant ways to do this, but none the less, here's a patch:
