Hearing Absolute Timing (A Sightly Better Way to Schedule Notes)
This Applet trys to play two parallel sequences of steady notes. One is
twice as fast as the other. The fast one plays a four note sequence and
the slow one plays a two note sequence.
It uses the Absolute Timing technique from the previous page, which
prevents drifting over time.
To Do:
-
Move the window around but don't resize it. Move other windows around on
your screen.
-
Notice how bad the timing is. The two sequences won't drift out of sync
but some of the notes may be late.
Here is the source code
for this program.
