Comment 6 for bug 1176184

Hi Michael,

Thank you for the patch. It looks like it will work now, but I do not fully understand the issue.

I hope you can help me with some general questions:
Does your controller periodically emit 0xF8? What is the use for it? How often does your emit this message?
Can you configure the rate? Is 0xF8 a midi standard clock signal or controller specific?

Please define 0xF8 by a macro to make the code more descriptive.
It would be nice if you can put a brief explanation into the source as well so that other contributors will understand you change when reading the code later.
