is there any way to send or recieve a midi start message on os X ???
how about using pd's [midiin] or [ctlin] objects, then filtering the messages acording to http://www.borg.com/~jglatt/tech/midispec.htm
so 0xFA (250 in decimal) will be midi start, 0xFC (252) is midi stop. 0xFB (251) is midi continue.
also, what about tempo? anyway to send or recieve that?
0xF8 (248) is the midi clock signal, which gets emitted 24 times every quarter note by your midi master. catch this signal and use [timer] to calculate the bpm out of it, if you want.
last but not least, there is the song pointer 0xF2 (242) which gives the current song position of your master in 16/th notes.
hope that's what you wanted to know
