Working with the CoreAudio Clock


  • Subject: Working with the CoreAudio Clock

I'm writing a MIDI sequencer that updates and changes the MIDI datastream in real time.  I'd like to do playback by means of a function that is called by the CoreAudio clock.  However, I find almost no source code that uses the CoreAudio Clock, and when I look at CoreAudioClock.h I find the following messages the clock can deliver to the clock handling subroutine:

kCAClockMessage_StartTimeSet
kCAClockMessage_Started  
kCAClockMessage_Stopped  
kCAClockMessage_Armed  
kCAClockMessage_Disarmed  
kCAClockMessage_PropertyChanged  
kCAClockMessage_WrongSMPTEFormat

I'm expecting to be able to set a tempo in seconds/beats/etc. and get a callback on every tick, but I don't see any way to set that up.  Am I missing something here?

Maybe it will help if I put it a different way.  The program is creating MIDI output in real time based on user input.  I want to have a clock routine with relatively low latency come in every beat and see what the user input has been, then send data based on that input.  Can I do that with CoreAudio Clock?

Thanks for any responses!
