using a toggle box which when a pressed inputs a 1 and released inputs a 0, is there any way to press it and release and have the one held in, its easier to see in the patch,

any help would be hugely appreciated.

You can use mousestate and a gate to do it:

Or just use [pictctrl] and create yourself an image of the [toggle] on and off states stitched together!

hey guys thanks for all the help, its actually using an xbox controller, for example pressing the green A button creates a 1 and then a 0 when releasing it

Not sure I follow you now, do you want it to be momentary (press=on, release=off) or latching (press=on, press again=off).

If you’re using a control that sends a 1 and a 0 then you’re done already, when pressing the button, its a 1, and when you let it go it’s a zero, you don’t even need a toggle (if I understand you correctly). That’s how it is with the wiimote.

it would be a latching system, at the moment when i press and hold the button the step sequencer starts but it stops when i release it.

Thanks for all the support so far guys
