I have 2 bang messages, but I need to create an object that will only send a bang if there is a bang on both inputs at the same time. I have tried using a logical and (&&) but this doesn't do what I want it to!

Please help me!

Thanks,

Matt

so, what you need to do, is to define what you mean by 'the same time', by giving a threshold for the minimum time between bangs that will count them as occurring simultaniously.

hopefully the attached patch will do what you want. i have set the threshold to 10ms by default, but you can change that if you need.

i also need a way to only send out a bang only if the left input has recieved a bang. if both are a bang then no output, if right only has a bang then no output.

any ideas?

if you look in my patch, there are two sets of 5 buttons, he lower buttons at the bottom of the neck, and the top buttons higher up the neck. when a lower button is pressed, only one of the coulours is toggled on. when you press a top button, one of the colours is turned on as well as the first grey toggle.

i need a way to be able to tell the difference between top and bottom buttons so i can send different midi messages. also, messages should only be sent when the strum bar is pushed with the buttons (strum bar is toggles 9 and 10 along)
