Rob;
As an aside: which version of ChucK are you using? I ask because I've
been bitten by a bug (documented in the archives) where the event
mechanism appears to truncate sub-sample times to an integer sample.
I'm wondering if that's been fixed.
I believe that bug is still in there.
BTW, I also believe that "sample accurate" could be seen to mean both interpretations that Stephen gave; I think both are valid and ChucK supports both. By that I mean ChucK's specs do, as Rob rightly points out there are issues with that in practice in the form of this bug.
Yours,
Kas.
