klick - An advanced metronome for JACK
Contents
Description
klick is an advanced command-line based metronome using the JACK sound server. It allows you to define
complex tempo maps for entire songs or performances. A single meter and tempo can be specified on the
command line, while more complex tempo maps can be read from plain text files. Alternatively, it's also
possible to run klick in interactive mode, where the tempo can be changed at runtime using the keyboard,
or to follow tempo information read from JACK transport.
