FA-81767 / MIDI event timing / Member archive

Time Signature meta event decoding: bar length counted in quarter notes · case 02

A 6/8 bar is reported as 2880 ticks (six quarters) instead of 1440.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input [bytes, ppq]. bytes must be FF 58 04 nn dd cc bb with nn > 0, dd <= 6 and bb > 0. The denominator is 2**dd; the metronome click is cc MIDI clocks (24 per quarter) converted to ticks as ppq*cc//24; the bar length in ticks is ppq*4*nn//denominator. Return [nn, denominator, click_ticks, bar_ticks] or None.

Why this case matters

MIDI sequencers, file readers and synth drivers depend on exact event ordering and tick/time arithmetic.
