Hi,
I am trying to collect the 12 loudest tones from a live input in one minute and output them as one midi chord. Which would be the best way to do that... Lists, arrays? This is as far as I got:
AmbienceChordTrigger2.pd
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ludwig

@ldwgbrgr Hi, the attached patch implements a suggested method with [text] and the abstractions from [list-abs]. Hope this helps.

ambiencechordtrigger_text3.pd

EDIT: swapped [list prepend] with [list append]

Turns out the above patch is wrong as it chooses the highest notes, an not the loudest. This corrected patch should do it as you intended hopefully.

ambiencechordtrigger_text4_loudest.pd

Keep in mind that by doing it this way, if the loudest 12 notes are the same, the patch will play a chord of 12 identical notes.

@weightless This is fantastic, exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!!
