Analogue-sequencer

> Yep. MIDI clock is not really stable enough to sync a DAW from.

I was going to say that MIDI sequencers (the software multitrack kind)
have been syncing to MIDI clock for years - nay, decades - but I
forgot that these days they do audio. I don't see why they shouldn't
still sync to MIDI, since I suspect they run their audio soundbites in
some kind of constant rate "fire-and-forget" mode - I think Performer
has an option for configuring this - and the audio between multiple
tracks should be locked in a sample-accurate manner anyway.

But having said that, the whole concept of an audio sequencer locked
to MIDI feels decidedly iffy. (On the other hand, SMPTE lockup can't
be that different, and it often translates down to a MIDI transport
protocol in any case.)
