Midi set tempo meta event

The Set Tempo Meta event itself contains a delta field as well. Is this delta defined in the previous tempo or in the new tempo (the tempo in this event)?

Thanks

Delta times are expressed in MIDI ticks, which are independent of tempo.

If you are calculating the real-time duration in microseconds of the delta time of the new tempo, you would use the MPQN of the previous tempo event to perform that calculation.
