I am storing row information from a matrixctrl object in a coll. There are 24 rows and I would like to store each row in a different zl reg object. I know how to output one row at a time, but how can i output all 24 rows into 24 different zl group objects so I can manipulate the lists differently?

This is part of a sequencer and I want to be able to rhythmically displace certain notes. Thank you, any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

In what ways would you like to manipulate these lists? It would seem to me that you could skip the zl reg and just query your coll, make a change to that particular index, and insert it back into the coll.

Well ultimately I'm going to put each list back into the matrixctrl and the way I would do that is with a zl object. I want to shift or displace the lists by certain amount using zl rot and maybe mix things up with zl scramble. And I'd like to do it to all the rows at once. I also want to add or subtract notes. This is part of a sequencer so it would give me some variation. I'll probably do the same thing with columns if I can figure this out. It seems do-able, although I'm kind of stuck on it. Thank you for your suggestion.

I put the only solution I could figure out below. It's not pretty, as a matter of fact it's kind of nasty, but it does what I want it to do. I know there must be a more elegant solution that I'm not realizing. Again, what I'm trying to do is get the info of each row in a matixctrl into a corresponding zl reg object as easily as possible, preferably one bang could trigger the whole thing. Then I plan on doing some operations with each zl object and put the info back into the martixctrl.

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.

Here you can manipulate columns as well as rows
