Great tutorial again. :)

Question- now the whole point of using that 'total time' from 'info~' is that we can use that exact time and use it as it is. But why pass the the leftmost message which counts 0 to 1 in 8000 seconds. I mean when i changed it, the sound went faster. what's the use of multiplying the 'total time of info' to the " *~" if it cannot detect it itself? even if i put any value, it should not the affect the speed!
