diminish frame rate

Hi,

I'm using jit.lcd to write text and I want that text to slowly fade over at least a minute, a minute and half. When I'm using a feedback loop with jit.op, the fade is much too fast. Is there a way to diminish the frame rate without losing any message (text) sent to jit.lcd? Or is there another way of having long fades? I tried to use jit.qball but I don't quite understand how to set it to work the way I need it.

Thanks!

jit.xfade and line? you could also employ my js-based lfo instead of line, if you want cycles:

Well, I probably explained it wrong. The fade is a continuous, feedback-style fade. I keep on sending new letters, the old letters fade away and so on.

shouldn't joshuas patch from this thread help you out?

sounds to me like matrix feedback with a jit.slide control.

Thanks, that seems very interesting. I'll try that.
