I've been muching on this for a while, and I'm considering making a very small DIN-MIDI Adapter with 2 tiny knobs: one for positive delay and one for swing.
It will be a "mini-device" packed into an adapter, which will take any MIDI and delay it by x ms as well as add swing to the clock (I'm not sure if adding swing to any other message would make sense?). Imagine like this picture but with one side male and one side female, you plug it in the MIDI output of your device and then plug a normal MIDI Cable into it.

So instead of the original idea of an add-on module for the Nome this would be an adapter you could use with the Nome but also with any other device.
Just FYI, one of the Nome II owners did a simple test recording the metronome and the audio output of a sampler to see how much delay there was between the sampler and the metronome.
Nome II -> metronome -> audio input
Nome II -> Beatstep Pro -> Boss Sp-303 -> audio input
The two audio inputs ended having about 10ms difference, which was very stable. This is a great example where a negative delay of 10ms on the MIDI Clock would bring the two audio tracks together.
To this day I am considering whether such a feature in the Nome is really needed or not. It seems very very few machines have large internal delays (which is the only case you would need a "per-output" latency).
So I plan on using this post/topic to list the potential machines with large delays which would require such a feature. If you know any and can prove the large difference with other machines, please feel free to add them here.
