Probably to make MIDI control as deterministic as the audio
processing. (Not much point in running a synth with small buffers
and SCHED_FIFO otherwise.)
but this is for JACK Rack, not a MIDI sequencer. we're talking
about controlling things from a control surface. why does it need
to be so "deterministic" when its already inherently sloppy? nobody
suggests that the X server and the GUI thread should be SCHED_FIFO
so that mouse-based control is "deterministic" ...
Well, if that's all there is to it (ie no input from external MIDI h/w
or something), I have to agree.
