I have programmed a program for live use, that (as one of its tasks) sends Midi clock beats via USB to an external device. Of course the most important thing for such a "DIY metronome" is its precision and that it does not drift over time. Thanks to the good time implementation under Linux (under Windows the timing is quite bad bc of the implementation of the library) I could verify, that short term presicion is ok (not perfect, up to 3/10 of a beat of). I am now looking for a way to ensure, that the metronome does what it is supposed to do for a longer peroid of time (up to several hours). I thought maybe I could send the Midi output to another running application on my pc, that shows me, how fast the received Midi clock is running, but I haven't found any such software yet. Any help is appreciated Continue reading...
