trigger from seq~. Phasor~ does a better job than line~, but things
right at zero range from mostly to hardly ever reliable. Generally,
having something happen on a downbeat isn’t my thing, but at this
moment I really need that dead on — has anyone had any experience
with making seq~ happy on the downbeat? Example below.

isn’t accurate enough for my purposes. Admittedly, I’m going into the
Max scheduler out of seq~, but in context I’m willing to trade
convenience for a bit of timing shake.

I got it working by starting my triggering line~ at -.001 instead of 0
(introducing more timing inaccuracies), so it works, but it seems to
me that it isn’t something that should have to be kludged or avoided
– it should just work.
