[LAU] what's up with midi clock

Hi Long story short: I'm writing a osc2midi_clock script in chuck for controlling sooperlooper from incomming osc messages. I have no experience with midi clock so I had to play around with it. The following seems to work (T for time messges (0xf8), S for start (0xfa), x23 means "repeat 23 times"): S Tx23 S Tx23 S etc. It even works to the point that I can throw in clients at any time, since the start messages resets the clock every quarter note. The two clients I checked with are sooperlooper and renoise. *However* the specifications I looked at are: http://www.harmony-central.com/MIDI/Doc/table4.html http://www.blitter.com/~russtopia/MIDI/~jglatt/tech/midispec/seq.htm They both suggests that it should actually be S Tx24 S Tx24 S etc, with little or no time between S and the following T. However here the clients (again sooperlooper and renoise) doesn't show the test tempo 112 but somewhere between 116 and 117. Anyone has any idea what the right way? Also; I've been discussing this with Jesse Chappell (author of sooperlooper) and he says that he looked at his code and thinks there's a bug (which makes it work correctly with my wrong midi clock, since that's actually written targetting sooperlooper). Now it would be very interresting to look at other clients and masters of midi clock, however not having worked with midi clock before, what would be the first clients to cross check with? -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk http://virb.com/atte
