If the transition from "AudioUnit processing audio with transport
stopped" to "AudioUnit processing audio with transport running"
is always marked in some way the AudioUnit can pick up, that's ok.

But that sounds like it would be bad for someone performing live,
who then presses "play" on the sequencer to seamlessly bring in
some backing - so doesn't want the current audio to be muted.

Hmm, maybe we mean different things - by "transport" I mean the
host's song position timeline which can be running or stationary,
and can instantly jump from one position to another.

Triggering audio events in sync with the host's bars and beats.
I just want to make sure there is enough information available
that I don't ever miss a beat when I should have triggered
something.
