Dissonance

I'm a newbie so sorry if this has been covered previously!. I want to store an updating integer boxes value in a list where I can get then calculate the average from. The Integer box is updated from a user bang (tap tempo) however I am not sure how to save each value from the same integer box as an individual list element. Any ideas? I feel like this should be really easy to achieve so apologies in advance!

Hi there,

zl object is your friend,
mean object your buddy


This is really useful thanks a million. Just one other thing, I have a counter which counts the amount of bangs and then feeds this to the right hand side of the zl group object. This works fine if the list length arrives before the elements populating it. However in my patch they are both arriving at zl group at the same time so I think it might be confusing it. Would the buddy object help with this. Just wondering how do I upload my source code to this site to show my patch?
