Something like [match], but for lists, checking for conditions.

Ploki — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 01:29:49 +0000

I know match takes lists, but it takes “consecutive lists”, that means if you feed it a “list” it takes it in as a series of numbers.

I have 8 sliders, when all are at 0 i’d like the patch to send a “poly mute” message.
The problem is that when I move the first slider, the sequence is 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0, and if/when I move the next one, it goes like 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0. So you already have 8 zeros and Match outputs it…

So i need something that checks and outputs only if ALL conditions are met.

thanks.

You could do something like this:

“id” : “obj-37″,
“outlettype” : [ "bang" ]

}

Hi,

If you just want to test for “all sliders are zero”, you could just use [zl sum] and test the output.

It’s inelegant but quick.

@ Richard : is that what you mean ? How is it that the button doesn’t light on when the condition is not true in gwsounddsg’s solution and does in mine ?

@nicolas Thanks man. Sorry about not compressing my patch. It was late and I hit submit before I looked at it.

@Stephane Morisse : Yes, that’s what I had in mind, although I don’t think the argument (value 4) in [zl sum] does anything.

@Richard Garret: That’s perfect!
I really only need to know if the sum is zero or bigger, in order to send mute/unmute to poly~.
