reading an amplitude

christian.guder@gmx.net's icon

hello,

i am using the joystick external to read the movement of a real objekt (a rocking horse). i want to measure the time between the two max. possitions (the amplitude) of the horse! are there objects which can display the amplitude of an "uslider"? and what kind of object i have to use to measure the time between the amplitudes. you know - i want to use the horse as a metronome for my patch?
at the end-positions the horse has to send a "bang".

thanks for your help

You can use "timer" to measure the distances in time.

try this,

Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

it's comparing the consecutive values that comes out the slider, and
that's what you need to do.
