just use [unpack] before the two [moses] and [pack] after them.

If you really dislike the two [moses] objects you could have something like:
[expr ($f1 >= 40) && ($f1 <= 60)]

in a single object and use it for a [spigot] to filter the numbers... 
But I'm not sure that's any better - and you'd still need to 'extract' 
only the first number, again most probably with [unpack].

It also really depends on the design of your patch... 'where' does the 
3-value list come from? Are you generating it? Capturing it from a 
physical device, etc.?

My two cents,
Lorenzo.
