*Using Windows11 with FL Studio 24
Does it matter if the timebase PPQ is greater or lower resolutions? FL sets it default at 96, but I'm not sure if it would yield better sync if it's set to 24 since that's the value for audio pulses the Midronome syncs to according to the manual. Just curious, couldn't find anything from Google.
Does the DAW Project's Timebase PPQ Affect Sync?

Re: Does the DAW Project's Timebase PPQ Affect Sync?
Hey Rob
Interesting thoughts
I think this "timebase PPQ" setting in FL is about sticking things to a grid, i.e. how fine do you want this grid to be. In other words what is the smallest "move" you can make in the DAW.
I do not think it affect anything about the plugin. But as you mentioned the whole sync in Midronome but also MIDI Clock is based on 24ppq, so maybe making your "grid" at 24ppq is a good idea, since most sequencers will stick that "grid"
I hope that clarifies things a bit!
