well I'm no expert on this, I think vline~ is able to generate ramps who's start and end times can be sub-sample accurate. This I think, is quite similar to the iemlib [t3_line~]...
It also has the added functionality of sending 'delayed' messages, ie. tell it to start ramping a second after it receives the message. Therefore it allows you to queue up lots of ramp commands, so you do not have to use many 'sub-sample accurate' [delay] blocks sending messages to the [vline~] in order to use its accuracy functionality.
Yes, vline~ is *the* internal object fÃŒr ADSR and similar envelopes, IMO. I use it in the rradcal rrad.adsr~.pd and rrad.adsr4~.pd abstractions. The latter uses quadric ramps as suggested in the docs for more natural sounding envelopes, while the former is linear.
