Hi – I spent about 3 hours searching the forum (expecting this was something that has been done before) – if you could point me to an existing discussion that would be great too!

I’m looking to synchronise applications, laptops etc with a clock – but with the possibility of changing the clock speed, and possibly location. Pretty much what the transport function does but I’m struggling figuring out how a ‘transport’ object can be slaved.

My initial thought was to send midi clock over OSC. Or MTC over OSC, not sure.

So imagine 2 devices running their own ‘transport’
I can see how I can send a ‘tempo’ and a ‘start’ and a ‘stop’ to the slave transport – but not sure if there is a chance of drift between the the master and the slave (is that likely?) and secondly not sure if I can fluidly changed the speed on the master and how the slave will follow.

On a related note – how do I slave a transport to midi clock?
