Hello Mike - 

--8<--cut 

MR> For example some MIDI OUT's/THRU's mix the local data with
MR> the received data so that there are processing delays
MR> involved. A normal THRU however has very little delay other
MR> than the opto-coupler/gate and the negligible 1ns every 9
MR> inches through space or wire conductor. When delays get
MR> into the 1ms range then it's troublesome. Kind of like a
MR> beginning pianist where a chord will sound with a tiny bit
MR> of delay between each tone. It's usually not that bad
MR> however. 

One of the challenges to programming MIDI on a computer is when
trying to add some of those delays to make the music sound more
'human' and less mechanical. :-)
