delay
Delay a bang by a given time (ms)
Description
Delay a bang for a specified length in milliseconds. Unlike the Max version in which a new bang resets the delay, multiple bangs can be delayed and output.
Arguments
time [number]
The amount of time in milliseconds to delay the output of incoming bangs.
Inlets
input [bang]
bang to delay.time [number]
The amount of time in milliseconds to delay the output of incoming bangs.
Outlets
out [bang]
The delayed bangs.
Dynamic Attributes
These attributes can be modified in the code during execution using the set object
delayall [number] (default: 1)
When set to 1 (default), all incoming bangs are delayed and output in the order received. When set to 0, delay behaves likes the Max delay object and only one bang at a time can be delayed by delay. If a bang is already in delay when a new bang is received in the left inlet, the first bang is forgotten.
input [bang]
bang to delay.
stop [bang]
Sending a bang to a connected set stop object will clear the delay object of all scheduled bangs.
time [number]
The amount of time in milliseconds to delay the output of incoming bangs.
