I am so close on this patch I can taste it!

I am trying to feed a number into a split. The split is set to allow 35, 36, and 37.

What I'm trying to achieve is if I send 35, then the range stays the same. If I feed 36, the range becomes 36-38. If I feed 37 the range becomes 37-39.

At the end of the day, these are midi pitch numbers and I want to allow through a pitch and then either the same pitch, a half step or a whole step above and then shift the range to always allow a half step or a whole step above the note.

Using incdec, I have it working to either keep the pitch the same or increment a single number OR by two, but I can't figure out the proper 'if' statement to allow either option.

Here is what I have so far. The issue seems to be the behavior of the if $i1 == ($i2 + 1) then $i1 else out2 $i1 statement. Also, I imagine there are probably more elegant ways to achieve what I'm trying to do, so any thoughts on that and I am all ears!

That seems to be working perfectly. Thank you so much! This is a really deep program, and yet seems so intuitive. I'm really humbled and thankful for this community!

If I may be so bold...I tried to add a bit of functionality, but it's not working as expected. Once the output number reaches 45, I want it to reset back to 35. When I bang the 35 twice (see attached) the reset works well. Also the if statement seems to make the bang happen, but the bang has to be pushed twice...and I'm not sure how to do a double bang-and for that matter why I need to bang it twice? I have a feeling that maybe the new reset bang is trying to reset the number before the old numbers have passed through or something?

I think I figured it out...well-I fixed it...that doesn't mean I understand it. I switched the 'if' statement to receive from the 'i' and not from the '+' and it works now.
