Also the 20160918 branch runs well on Pi, even subbed FA for MIDI tick. Spit out lots of Start messages HAHA. This was Pi to PC/MidiOx end-to-end test Another minor OT detail, Schism  does run with QjackCtl, just can't run the Jack server (which makes sense).

As to Note on/off, no don't see any traffic. But to me, thought it would be something like a 'instrument' set to a Channel to be used on a track. With the entry '9c n v'; this looks to me like hardcoded 9=high nibble of status, Note message, and  c=variable for low nibble, the Channel. With n and v variables to complete the message. So I thought either a placeholder for function or some way to send notes from a track.

Just did some simple tests, changing the Note On to 91 01 01, to see if it would send these absolute values but no. Then changed the 'Embed MIDI data' to On but no change. Much of the Midi Screen I don't understand, kind of 'poking at it with a stick to see if it does something'

It would be a wet dream if this works Being able to track an external synth along with samples would be the Holy Grail

So yet another test.

I found the Zxx midi macro command, and this relates to the 'MIDI Output Configuration screen' Macro Setup. So I put Z83 (F0F00118) on a track and it sends a SysEx message-
  SYSX: 240 1 24 247 =  F0 01 18 F7
The 01 and 18 from the macro is framed by the SysEx Start F0 and End F7. Not sure of the rules here. So changed Z83 to F0F00118101010 and now sends-
  SYSX: 240 1 24 16 16 16 247 = F0 01 18 10 10 10 F7.

I'm guessing the second 'F0' denotes a SysEx type. Trying a change to 'F0910101' sent-
MidiOx: "145  1     1    2  C#-1 Note On"    Which reads NoteOnChannel2(0x91) C#-1(0x01) Velo(0x01).

Just a little follow up after some testing with MidiOx.
I'm using the current release Win32 20160913 with s3m Mods sending into Midi Ox's Midi Sync Transport detecting the Tempo.
On this setup there is a minor difference between the Mod's labled Tempo and the detected Tempo. Mods displaying Tempo 80 are detected at 81; and mods labeled as 125 are detected as Tempo of 128.
The difference is probably due to Midi Ox's detection Looks good!

One thing that I don't understand is the Midi Output Configuration page. The init values were:
start=FF
stop=FC
tick=
So I changed these to:
start=FA
stop=FC
tick=F8
At one point I wanted to see the Start/Stop message behaviour better, so I reset the tick field to blank. But ticks continued to be sent. Then also blanked the Start field but Start messages also are sent regardless of the values on the Midi Configure Page. Am I misunderstanding the use of this page? It does update the config file and I have tried re-starting Schism. Or does it describe how/what the tracker responds to?
It's not really an issue for me but just trying to understand,
