Not yet good enough yet Apple - we need better resolution (grand - granularity)

If true, we should start actively lobbying Apple.

I don't know if it's true or not; but we need to aim for at least `MIDI tuning dump resolution,
if we are to get beat patterns anywhere near what they sh(c)ould be.

I think you guys need to talk to Jim the Numerology developer first.
Most of you are going off of 2nd-hand or worse information. Jim has
