Is there a way to tell counter to NOT reset when it reaches its

maximum? In other words, STOP counting bangs?

I could create a gate to stop it from counting bangs but I'm wondering

if that might superfluous if there's a simpler way.

just use the "finished" bang to trigger a gate. When you need to count

again, use a bang to reset the gate and the counter.

I'd say its absolutely simple enough, I would not want an overhead which 

I personally never use for such a thing. If needed, a gate is just one

I personally never use for such a thing. If needed, a gate is just one 
more object, don't be lazy...

The original poster asked if it was possible to do this WITHOUT using  
a gate.

Straight from the timing tricks in the help files

Thanks everyone for the replies. I'll check out the patches.

I ended up just using a gate to stop the bangs from being counted for

now. Once it hits maximum, the flag closes the gate and stops the

bangs. I'm using it control knob input from my MotorMix. The knob is

turned up (clockwise), the bangs get counted going up. The knob gets

turned down (counterclockwise) the bangs get counted with the

direction of the counter going down. I've done it this way to allow me

to map the scale of the knobs later probably with a pattr for whatever

I need. The knobs of the MotorMix are also infinite and thus don't

give a specific position but only a direction.

stop counter from reseting itself
