Ok, thanks, it takes form now We did some small changes and now we've got exactly what we wanted thanks a lot for all your help!

But how do I stop the flow of the spigot? How do I have to use the delay, so that once 10 seconds past, the spigot blocks the passage. If i connect the 0 to the 1 or put another bang after the trigger, the 1 gets banged as well. and putting the delay 1000 and the 0 after the 1, the one doesn't even get to the spigot.

Hi all of you!
We're totally new to the forum, and haven't ever worked with PD, but have to since we gotta do a little audio-thing with it for a subject at the University of Applied Sciences.

We thought about analysing the PC_microfone-input for some seconds, and then opening and playing a file which says something like "Whooooaaaa, you're way too loud!" etc etc...

Now, so far, so good. We got a problem with the spigot, which should block the incoming values, so that the answer to the input, better said the file, can be played in one row without interuption, which would take place, without spigot. But now, undependingly of sending an 1 or 0, it doesn't get any floats or values, and so no output takes place. What is wrong here??

Thanks for your answers beforehand!

PS: of course the audio files aren't included, so they won't work, but I guess one can control it with the number field or you make some audio files on your own. Most of you are specialists here so I keep my fingers crossed, I guess it won't be a problem for you.
