Hi
is there an object in pd that works like gate on max. the problem i have with spigot is that i can't route the data through diferent outlets. is there any gate like object?
thanks

there is a [gate] in some library, don't recall which; the GridFlow library has [shunt], which is the same with inlets inversed, just like the [demux] that was in jMax, and actually it was called [demux] in GridFlow before, but there's a conflict with the alias [demux] of the [demultiplex] class in Zexy, which takes args more like [unpack] than like [gate].
Are you confused yet?

It's in Cyclone. Cyclone is home for a lot of Max objects that aren't in Pd (yet).
does it work the same way than in max? i'm having alot of dificulty translating my designs from max to pd. not only with the objects names but also the argument order and syntax.
where's the cyclone website?
thx

I think, that's intended, but I don't know Max.

It's a long URL I cannot remember but Cyclone is available in the CVS at http://pure-data.sf.net
There is a lot more nice stuff there.
Ciao

oh, another name-clash in one of my libs... (probably the IEM should get the nameclashing award), i hope it has been there before the GridFlow version.
as for the "weird" [unpack]-behaviour, i chose to do so because of readability: as long as objects are not resizable, a [demux] with 20 outlets is rather hard to read if there is not some mechanism to make it wider than 8 characters.
but i really could make it compatible with a single-argument [demux] (as i suppose, nobody has a demulitplexer with just one outlet...)
are there any functional differences (as i always thought, that zexy's [demultiplex] does exactly what a demultiplexer should do: demultiplex a data-stream to one of many outputs)

[shunt]/[demux] now take a second (optional) argument for the default selected outlet, but i'm not really using that feature yet. BTW the issue with the width of boxes does not occur with jMax, because in jMax the width of boxes is set manually... actually way too manually, but at least they can be resized. Now if we could have the best of both ways...

I've been using expressions and [*~] to do gate/switch type stuff on audio signals. It's messy and needs lots of patch cords but it works. I would think you can do the same on control data with lots of [spigot]s.
