The current version of LV2 MIDI just uses double. All the precision you could ask for, or an insane range if you'd prefer. It's a bit big maybe, but hey, why not? We could use float I guess to save a bit of space, but I definitely prefer floating point. Fixed point is just a PITA, modern CPUs are much faster at FP anyway, why bother? -DR- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
