[sdiy] Techniques for Multiplying MIDI Clock frequency?

Measure incoming clock period with a timer. Then divide that measured
timer value by the number you want to multiply the frequency. If you say
anything between 10 and 100 is fine, then dividing by 32 sounds like
walk in a park. And that divided value (or simply shifted in case of 32)
is then loaded as period for another timer that outputs a pulse on overflow.
This way after each incoming clock pulse you get immediate response of
updated frequency multiplied by 64 (or whatever other value)
