  Thanks for clarifying.

  Ah, that explains alot.

  24ppq is fine when your sequencer only schedules notes on 24ppq
boundaries. :)

  You're right though, I badly need hard timers, but my point was that
an 8192hz clock isn't so bad if you only use it for events which are
unaligned on 24ppq boundaries.  Otherwise, I have to trust the MIDI
clock for audio too, or my drumroll will stutter when I turn the tempo
knob while playing.
