Re: [LAD] Dealing with time

Hey, In my own pet project I've abstracted things like samplerate, sample time, MIDI time and anything else to one value, which I've lovingly named "beatPercent". Its a single "float" variable. The value itself is the musical "beat" of the event, and the "Percent" part, is how far along that beat the event occurs. Of course depending on samplerate etc etc there may be a (tiny) discrepancy in this "percent" value, but I can happily live with that. Keep in mind that the project only deals with standard 4 / 4 music, and I've no intrest in weird but wonderful timing games. I wanted something that would abstract away all jack_nframes, timer ticks etc and I could easily work with. I haven't found any big drawbacks yet, but I'm not trying to develop SMPTE or MTC or anything either, so there may be issues that I haven't come across yet. Hope that was of some help, -Harry
