In case of LSDj, that would be 8 pulses (=one byte) on the clock line while nanoloop expects the data line to toggle high/low with each MIDI clock.
For emulation, you need to implement this functionality. Just forwarding the MIDI bytes to the link port only works for mGB.

From what I'm guessing, the MIDI pins just get basically mapped to the link cable. So in theory, all I would have to do is take LoopBe1 and write a python script to send it to BGB's virtual link cable, but I think I'm completely wrong. Thoughts?
