Hi Raul,

you will want to investigate the binary operations and mathematical
operations for signals. In this case, you want to know when the
[phasor~] reaches 1:

[==~]

and this will output a signal of 1 (= HIGH), otherwise a zero (= LOW).
You can use [snapshot~] to covert this to a float. [avg~] is supposed to
do this as well, but it doesn't do anything on my OSX  PD Extended-0.39
installation.

Thomas Mayer's squarewave converter that he posted using [>~ 0.5] and
[-~ 0.5] is a similar idea, giving you also HIGH and LOW values, but you
might still need to convert to float for the next part.

Once the result of you binary operation is a float, you can use a
counter-like structure to count the HI levels, and some other math
operations to count (alternately 1,2 and 1). I don't have time to patch
the whole thing myself, but hopefully you will see what I mean.

best,
d.
