I have a patch where a button is banged every time the frequency of an input audio changes. It works well, but sometimes several consecutive bangs are sent. What would be the best way of programming a code that would ignore a bang that happens too quickly after the previous one (i.e., a kind of smoothing out)? Let's say that if a 2nd bang happens in less than 100ms from the previous one, it should be completely ignored and the button should be banged just by the first input.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately [speedlim] doesn't help me here (I've tried it before) because it will simply delay the second bang, not ignore it. I need that all bangs that happen after the first until 100ms to be completely ignored. Does this make sense?

Chris nailed it.. onebang already has a gate built in.

Thanks to both of you, the solution using onebang is certainly better.
