Thank guys. I completely missed the integer in/out part. I had sort of figured out it was trying to increase apparent resoution from what Peter and Jon said and now that makes a lot of sense why. We'll give it a try.
Though, Im now curious as to how a filter will play along w/ the velocity mode setting. As long as the filter rate is reasonable I guess the output isn't still settling for a good time after the wheel has stopped.
