I've tried all ZL codes and none seem to work well for me. I just want ZL to list all numbers going into it, but I don't want to hit a minimum, I just want it to list them straightaway. Also I don't want there to be a maximum limit to the list.

(So I want it to be limitless and instantaneous, not 50)

how-can-i-use-zl-stream-without-using-a-specified-length-and-be-instantaneous

firstly, you should use the "Copy compressed" to post your patches - much cleaner.

About what you are trying to do, this might help you:

I wouldn't use the "message" object for serious "list managing", but it depends on what you want to do!

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for :).

I just wanted Max to list/store numbers that are being fed into it, and then output them as piano notes one by one (with no necessary rhythm)

Your purpose is not very clear, but could this be useful?

or use the [list-accum] external by CNMAT

What you want isn't very clear. The purpose of zl stream is to output a leap-frog style capture of the last (n) digits.

How can I use ZL Stream without using a specified length, and be instantaneous?
