Transiet Tracker in Multichannel setup

Joachim G's icon

Hey forum people, im a student working on a collbrative project. Our aim is to create a simple "Transient Tracker" for a eight speaker multi channel setup.
The core idea is to have a sample/incoming audio in Abelton run trough a Gate with a set threshold, when the amplitude passes the threshold, the gate gives a bang to a sequencer that controls which output speaker the Sample/signal is being played.
So for every time the threshold is surpassed the output speaker is being changed by the sequenser, preferably it would be possible to program what pattern the device will output signal to, for example: For every "transient/bang" play out of speaker 2, 3, 6, 4, 5, 1, 8, 7 -> 2, 3, 6, 4, 5, 1, 8, 7.
Hope this was understandable, any help would be hugely appreciated!

max patch - nothing to do with ableton live ...
simple transient detector,
on each bang counter cycles through list items and so switches speakers.

coll example with creation of random output order lists.
