Hi, interestingly, up till now there was no means in vasp for that.... however, if you check it out from cvs tomorrow morning you'll find a vasp.sum? object for this kind of things.
In the pd-ex/vasp_qsum.pd help file you'll also find an example for RMS calculation which i think is what you want to do. In principle it does the following:
[vasp buf( -> [vasp.sqr] -> [vasp.sum?] -> [/ samples ] -> [sqrt] -> RMS value
There will hopefully be a more elegant (non-destructible though in-place) way for that in the future......
best greetings, Thomas

sorry if you knew about this already, but you probably want to use VASP for this:
http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/ext/
"VASP is a package for PD or Max/MSP consisting of a number of externals extending these systems with functions for non-realtime array-based audio data processing. VASP is capable of working in the background, therefore not influencing eventual dsp signal processing."
i've not actually done anything with it yet, so i'd love to hear how it goes if you do.

Anyone have any working examples of this?
