Play my value

This snippet announces the value of a control, such as a knob, slider or trim. Only the resting value is reported (repeats and intermediate values are skipped).

Here's an example using knob S1:

How it works

• L1 spikes true whenever a change in value of S1 is detected.
• L2 inverts L1 ('!L1'), so L2 is false while L1 spikes, and can go true only after a 0.5 second delay. If L1 spikes again within the delay period, the delay restarts. This means that L2 goes true only after L1 has been false continously for the delay period.
• L2 triggers the SF1 calls out.

Note that the second parameter in L2 is blank ('---').

The graphic below shows the logic levels v. time. Clicks 'D' and 'E' are repeats within the 0.5 second delay period.

The method works equally well with knobs and trims.
