The more I think about this... the more fun it sounds.

Have you considered doing an MDI interface? This way you
can go back to spamming windows... but it stays contained in
your applications MainWindow.

When you say 'timebase master' -- do you mean Jack's
timebase master? Or internal.

I'm invisioning something very simple and flexible.
Something that pretty much keeps 1/4 time. Something that
can also slave to the Jack transport.

However, I think if you try to make this into something that
can be a reliable Jack transport master -- I think it would
stop being fun. :-)

Peace,
Gabriel
