[gmpi] Re: Topic 6: Time representation

So it knows how to calculate the exact position in quanta of any event, after taking into account tempo changes. So every meter event simply contains a duration, which is the delta in time before the host is going to send the next meter event.


Why can't a meter event just set a property that sticks until another, different meter event occurs? This is how e.g. SMF works. IOW, why is the duration span needed? I'm assuming this is independent of tempo changes.


My idea here was to give the plugin a way to know the tempo over the next interval.
