Gradual Time Stretch - how to?

[jgiannis]

Hi.

I have a small clip of dialogue. I need to gradually stretch it out (like a tape-machine dying). I know VARI-FI does this, but I need more control over it. VARI-FI doesn't stretch it long enough, and when I run it multiple time on the same clip, it seems to stretch out only the end portion of the clip.

I've tried using Elastic Audio, but that's not so much a gradual stretch. That's more of me placing markers and trying to stretch incrementally, but it's not continuous.

Does anyone know of other methods?

Thanks!
