Here's a patch (attached). It seems that I was probably wrong, still the 
patch doesn't work as I expect it to work. Connect the right outlet of 
[savebangs] to the message underneath it and save. In [pd test1] only 
[osc~ 440] should remain, since the loop is set to run two times and 
delete two objects, [phasor~] and [cos~], but only one object gets 
deleted. The contents of [pd test2] are cleared though.
