It just struck me from looking at the new CA documentation that the problem here is that the term 'beat' is being used incorrectly. All of the fields in the various structures asking for a beat actually want a 'clock' normalized to 1.0 ppqn. Clocks are the normal time measurements of most MIDI sequencers.

Bill,

Hmmm.... What would the current down beat return on the second measure of a piece with a 3/8 time signature?

It seems to me that the meaning of the 8 in 3/8 is that the "8th note gets the beat".

Yes - but (as the docs describe I think) the downbeat could be a
partial number... think of a piece with 3/8 bars

We also consider that quarter notes are a beat.
