Hi, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help. I've tried reading through all I can with no luck. I'm trying to create a patch where a specific time is entered in a number box and then it triggers buttons through different metro objects. I'm trying to make it so it triggers one button right on enter and then cycle between two buttons almost like a metronome. My issue is that when the patch is running and I input a new time it often makes the buttons trigger out of whack before it settles back into a rhythm again.

It kinda looks to me that it wants to force out any remaining bang messages in the system before it continues to work. My hope is that I can get these buttons to work so they can trigger audio, but it won't work if the audio files get triggered out of order. Hopefully the file makes more sense if my explanation doesn't. Thanks in advance!

4. no idea yet. what is the aim? mabye dont forget that you can turn metro off an on when required.

You need to learn how metro, delay etc objects work.

Using delays is allways tricky, there are also other ways to run a sequence ot timed events

Thank you so much! I'm having a look through it now. Works exactly how I was imagining it when I tried to make mine. I'm still super new so still not making 100% sense to me with how it works, but I'll slowly rebuild my own to see how all the pieces work together. Thanks again.

follow colored patchcords coming out of trigger object

the order of execution right to left is the key to all.
