So

I 
see 
that 
seq 
has 
a 
'goto' 
command 
with 
seconds 
and

if

There's 
the 
[mrpeach/midifile] 
object. 
You 
feed 
it 
ticks 
from 
a 
[metro] 
to 
advance 
through 
the 
file 
and 
can 
jump 
to 
any 
tick 
in 
the 
file. 
It 
can 
also 
dump 
the 
file 
so 
you 
can 
find 
the 
tick 
number 
to 
go 
to. 
It 
doesn't 
know 
about 
seconds 
but 
you 
can 
tune 
the 
speed 
very 
finely. 
I 
have 
had 
it 
running 
in 
sync 
with 
the 
Hydrogen 
drum 
machine 
for 
hours 
at 
a 
time.
