if i read the question correctly then:
how do you create your delay going from 1s to 0s in 1000ms ?
most probably you will use [line~] to control [vd~]
and what if you could send a [stop( message to [line~] to freeze the 
delay-amount ?
and what if this has been implemented into [line~] since i know it 
(which is probably *very* long)
