In trying to resolve my Timeline problem, I have come across another difference between 6.53 & 6.54.

The attached Sound is part of a larger Sound. I use the !Index to play a different sample on each !PenDown event.

When I compile this Sound in 6.53, the value of !Index starts at zero. In 6.54 the first value is one.

As a result, in 6.54 the first sample gets skipped. I know I could fix this, but it makes me wonder how many other things there may be like this in my Timeline.

Here is another, similar example.

When I compile this in 6.53, it starts up with select_1 = 0.

When I compile in 6.54, select_1 = 1.

Right, we had discovered that in earlier versions, the countTriggers expression was incorrectly starting at -1 (rather than starting at 0). It looks like you were correcting for this by adding 1 to the result of the expression:

( blankingTrigger L countTriggers) + 1

If you could change this to

blankingTrigger L countTriggers

it should work as expected in this and future versions.

The same holds for countTriggersMod: and countTriggersMod:reverse:

For your second example:

(!Plus countTriggersMod: ?NumberVoices) eq: (?VoiceNumber - 1)

you could get around it by using the following:

(!Plus hasChangedReset: 0) * ((!Plus countTriggers - ?VoiceNumber mod: ?NumberVoices) eq: 0)

Sorry for the inconvenience and stress. We wanted countTriggers to mean exactly what it sounds like and we did not think it should start counting from 0.

Thanks, I'll give your suggestions a try.

My second example actually comes from a Timeline I've been developing in 6.54, so it didn't work when I switched back to 6.53.

I'll try to get everything to work in the new release.
