Is it possible to send data out of a cpp_CHOP before first cook

hi. i generate some data which i wanna send out to define some other op’s length. based on their calculated values (pattern, noise etc…) - incomming via customparameter CHOP in - my cppCHOP generates new forms.

so - a classical feedback loop. it works - but i need a way to “start” the machine". - so - therefore i need the last used sample value sended out before the operator cooks.

any ideas?
