Hello all,

   I may be going about this all wrong, so please tell me if there is a better solution to my query.
I am building a patch that, among other things, returns the time between two bangs using the timer object.
What I need to happen is this: if a short amount of time passes  the number that is output is a large one and the inverse, if a lot of time passes,
a small number is output. I have searched around quite a bit, but as I am not sure what I am trying to accomplish would be called, I haven't had great luck finding anything.
any suggestions? alternate ideas I could try?

thanks much.
