pantracols

I'm designing a patch with a lot of math calculations for control signals that come from a MIDI controller (knobs)

My problem is that when i make a simple expression like

the output olny updates its value when $i1 changes, but not when $i2 changes.

does anybody know a way to have an updated value at the output when any of the inputs changes?

The [pak] object will help. Also I'd recommend using straight math operators if you only need one of them in your equation, for example use [-] rather than [expr $i1-$i2]. Here's a patch:

i'm sorry to ask this but, how can I use the code you posted to create a maxpat file?

Thanks luke!!
