Converts clock time to music time.
object.ClockToMusicTime(ctTime As Long) As Long
Returns the equivalent music time.
If the method fails, it raises an error, and Err.Number can be set to DMUS_E_NO_MASTER_CLOCK.
This method converts a time offset from the start of the performance, not a duration. The ratio between music time and clock time units depends on the tempo, so in making the conversion, DirectMusic takes into account all tempo changes since the start of the performance. If a master tempo has been set for the performance, it is taken into account as well.
Because music time is less precise than clock time, rounding off occurs.
