len-dtquestion: for midi use high res clock is very important. While reading about this I am finding that there are two ways of getting a time in the future to perform a task like outputing a midi command.17:09
len-dtA number of ticks into the future or at a specific time in the future.17:09
len-dtthe problem with the first one is that if the counter is preempted the time might be stretched, so I would expect that the second method would be preferred.17:10
len-dtMy question then, seeing as this is based on the RTC, what effect does a program that slowly changes the RTC to keep it locked to one of the world clock time sources.17:12
len-dtIS that going to over time put midi events out of sync with the audio stream?17:13
len-dtAh, I think I answered my own question. There is a second clock (monotonic) that starts at boot and cannot be changed till next boot. Audio/midi apps probably use that.17:17
