I'm running a Lanbox LCX under Lcedit + software and I regret the old LCII soft for only 1 thing : we can choose the time we want !
No, not really. It was limited to short fades only, and only very short times had a high resolution (like we have now).


Why have you change that on Lcedit + ?
The old system was much more flexible !
The current system made it possible to have long fades of up to 15 minutes, while its still has a resolution of better then 5% (which is better then you can get on most sliders ;-). Remember we only have 7 bits to store a fade time or hold time. If 5% is too coarse for a certain application you can  easily add an extra step to get a certain time, as the values we are showing (like 5.1sec) are <0.01% accurate in absolute time.
