Using the counter object I would like a number box to create one single palindrome cycle everytime a button is pressed. After the cycle has complete I would like the counter object to shut off - or at least stop outputting values to the number box in question. Any advice would be much appreciated.

The exact situation is that I require a MIDI controller to send a palindrome from 0 - 127 to an external device on command. I've tried to do this with variations of metro objects and gates but I have had no success.

I would probably do it with the line object, like this.

But if you want to do it with a counter, you could do something like this. (The 'bang' from the sel 1 object only gets through onebqng if it has been preceded by a bang from the sel 2 object.)

Thanks for the suggestion. I have used the object system using the counter. This way I could easily implement a way including a bang after the palindrome e cycle has complete - not a requirement but nice to know it's possible.

Make palindrome go through one cycle and then shut off
