[PD] vline~ question

Ahh, okay.  RIght, but if you scheduled that last message at 1800  
instead of 59000 it would interrupt the full motion of the previous  
item.  I was looking at these messages from the perspective of classic  
envelope generators (for example, the 'time varying' envelopes on the  
Roland XP-50/60/80 series for example, which are simply a set of  
volume points with associated slide times).  So I get it now.

The example below is a good one, hard off.  If I were to make that  
envelope on the XP-50, for example, I would need a point in between to  
setup the long delay between 2000 and 59000, and would look something  
like this:

[0, 1 1000, 0 500 2000, 0 57000 2000, 70000000 6 59000(

Thanks a bunch,
