(Millisecond-accuracy timings should do)

Line 3:
* Reword "However, the playing of the sounds should not interfere with the timing of the metronome, so a separation of the playing and timing processes may be required." Just say something simpler such as "the beat indicator should remain true to the selected tempo." Anything more there is either vague, overspecification or unnecessary, IMO.

: Given that metronomes are aimed at helping people when playing music, the timings really don't need to be perfect. A millisecond timer should do fine provided it is coupled properly to an absolute time source so the workload of sound and <s>fury</s> GUI doesn't interfere. (On the other hand, a timer on the scale of a second — usually the most available on the system — is definitely not sufficient.) –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 08:11, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
