No problem :-) But still I don't understand what you want to get.
MIDI clock stream is just a part of complex MIDI data on MIDI output
(containing System and Channel data), and it has nothing to do with
channels - MIDI clock doesn't include any information about MIDI
channels. Of course you can mix those three signals as you plan, and
when both sequences will play from two different sequencers, they can
even have different tempos. That MIDI clock from the third input will
become part of mixed MIDI signal on output and can't have any
influence on channel data - they both will be controlled by their
respective tempo setting in their respective sequencers from which
they are transmitted.
So this new added MIDI clock will do nothing in receiving
multitimbral instrument, but when this instrument has internal
sequencer, and it will have loaded some music data, you can control
its tempo (and Start/Stop/Continue) when you set it for receiving
external MIDI clock. That's all.
At least how I understand it now after your second explanation.... My
answer is in full agreement with Achim, he wrote the same. You will
get two sequences in their own tempos, plus unrelated new MIDI clock
stream. What this MIDI clock stream will do, depends only on the MIDI
implementation and setting of the receiving unit.
