Re: Microphone to get guality like this...

Re: "Show Clipping" Options

Doing a "fade" is outside my comfort zone OK. Does it help if we drop the fade from the patch? Not really. Either way (fading out or erasing completely after a set time period) requires doing something with a timer from within code which is being ...
