Midi Sync

New article posted discussing MIDI Synchronization:

MIDI Synchronization

It's a useful primer on the basic concepts with a little detail thrown in for those wanting to know a bit more.

Hey - sorry - busy with holiday preparation - in my case getting the plaster up on the wall before tomorrow so we can celebrate some kind of christmas in the house.

Anyway - had a read through, and think it is very good. Nice ramping up in the detail/complexity level. You could possibly at the end link to some specs of the actual midi data for the real hardcore nerds (like myself ...)

Found a couple of typos in the end:

"Quarter-Frame Messages use status byte F1. Ine timecode frame is too much information to be ..." - I am sure that should be "One timecode frame".

", event starts, recording dropins and outs etc. Full Frame

Message format also includes user bits, often used for labelling tapes with" - shouldn't be 2 newlines after "Full Frame" I suppose?

... back to my plastering again ...
