Good morning,

I am trying to come up with an object that will gradually increase/decrease a given number while it is ON, and stop/reset this speed of increase/decrease when it is turned OFF. This action will happen when I hold down a button/key, and I've been able to do this at a consistent speed by turning on/off [metro], but now i need to gradually change metro.

I'm interested in trying this out using the formulas that create different Bezier curves and such... - in other words, something that starts slow, and gradually increases the rate of change. But I don't know much about how to build these different curves.

Could anyone help me out please?

Thank you for your time,
Sebastian

Do you mean an in-/decrease over time or over steps?! Does the "refresh-rate" change?? ..there is more than one way to do that..
And I don't know what you want to do with bezier-curves. They are rather curves in 2D... but it can work if you like.
Maybe post something like a patch...

Anyways, have a look a [line], I'd say.. Then feed a function with it, or if you're directly giving it the right values at the right time, it can do things other than linear..

kinda weird, but it works
