4. Transport UST clock(?) - UST clock structure
Is (4) really necesssary? You could just pass in the current absolute UST
actually, (4) is a non-sequitur. the UST clock is monotonic and system-wide. it is not influenced in any way by transport position.
5. Musical clock in ticks and fractions of ticks
no fractions of ticks. the tick is the "atomic" unit of musical time. there is no smaller unit. if you want to be more precise than that, you use samples or nanoseconds. (i prefer either 1420 or 2520 ticks per beat, which maximises the available factors so that divisions of the beat can be expressed in ticks without loss of accuracy. 2520 is particularly good, as tim noted yesterday).
