Some quick ideas: Use an external metro and receive it with
netreceive/OSC. This will be quantized to message blocks of course,
but maybe OSC timestamps can be used.

jack_transport: Will only work on systems with jack. I don't know, if
there's an external available, but it shouldn't be too hard to write.

[adc~]: Use a click signal coming in over [adc~]. Advantage: This will
not be quantized. But you need some objects to make use of these
signal clicks. Eric Lyon wrote some, they are in CVS.
