is there a valid way to convert a NIL to a Zero? in the attached patch i used a count to convert a NIL to a valid bang signal. however for the reset timer i can’t do it with count because i have to count how many bangs comes trough.
Not sure what you mean with “parsing” here, but an AvoidNil (Spreads) right after the first S+H works fine.
In vvvv, there a special IOBoxes for all kinds of types, make sure you use the right ones.
