The only downside is longer sysex events. I think

be time stamped) or at least would have added latency (ie. it would
no longer be real time anyway). But that is a problem rawmidi would
have to deal with as well. I do not know if there is a particular
byte count limit to sysex events or if it varies with jack latency
(the length of the cycle). But if you expect users to use this live,
then it needs to work with reasonably low latency.
I can't help but think that if you're doing something that requires
sample-accurate sysex messages, you're doing something a bit strange and wrong :-D
