I do realise that one probably would reset the ***recorded*** events to t0=0, but since this only is recorded in memory i don't care. I was a bit worried about losing polyphony playing up this way but to check if the recorded event time is less then clock seems to work nice.

But now a metronome, and synched play and record maybe a bit harder.
