Am i missing something or is the only way using [coll]?

i think yes, lists do not have an index the way a coll or textfile
has.

of course you could make your own object using zl slice and
2 copies of zl join. this would also allow you to insert
a list at a given element index.

Hi,

with max5, it is possible with [zl nth] (using the right outlet). Have a look to the help file.
