The granularity of the clock is either 60Hz (NTSC) or 50Hz (PAL) that means that all step lengths are a multiple of this value. As an example, a Speed of 16 (0F hex) frames/ticks/whatever on an NTSC system is 16 * 1/60th of a second = 0.266666667 seconds. In one minute that's 225 beat/ticks which I guess could equate to 225 BPM if you place a note on every step with no gaps.

It gets pretty heavy into it.

Does anyone have any tips or links that would help me. I've looked hard on Neil Baldwin's site, but haven't had much luck with a good focused tutorial on it.
