[sdiy] op amp integrators

hi everyone.
you might remember a while ago i posted about a module i made that
generates a Lorenz attractor [www.aovt59.dsl.pipex.com/chaos.html for
more info/mp3s]. anyway i've been thinking it would be cool to add a
speed control to it and... well, i need some help :/
the speed of the circuit is determined by the size of the three caps;
each of these works with an op-amp to form a integrator like this
['scuse the ascii]...
+----||---+
| |
| |\ |
dx | G-|+\___|__ x
dt ---+---|-/
|/
i've been told that for a tuned circuit, the time constant is determined
by a capacitor and a resistor... where would i put a pot to alter the
speed?
also, the fact that there are three seperate integrations that would
ideally be controlled by one pot is confusing [to me anyway...] would
this basically require it to be voltage-controlled and have the pot just
generate a cv? if so, could someone point me in the right direction?
thanks!
thom
