is there any need for the 1ms metro limit? couldn't it at least be lowered to 0.01ms to enable sample accurate timing?
i guess the limitation is for "safety" reasons. but you can always use a self-feeding delay:
[toggle ]
|
[sel 0 1]
|
[bang ( [stop (
\ /
[t b]X[del 0.0226757]
|
..
yeah yeah, i know, so don't let it go to infinitely small values, but 1ms is probably getting a bit outdated. surely it's time for a revision?
take a del and feeback the outletBang with the inlet of the del. do not forget a stopmessage (caution infinite loop)

I do some sample accurate work, the best way I've found is [bang~] which outputs a bang every every audio cycle.

i'm not looking for suggestions. i'm just saying that the 1ms lower limit on metro speed is probably getting a bit outdated, and could be lowered to 0.01ms, to allow for sample accurate timing.
i assume that 1ms was an arbitrary decision made years ago when computers were much less powerful, and for 99% of situations these days, a better resolution is still going to be 'safe'.
also, there are so many other things that pd lets you do 'dangerously', so why not let us play with fire with the metro object too?
