NAME

       klick - An advanced metronome for JACK

SYNOPSIS

       klick [options] [bars] [meter] tempo[-tempo2/accel] [pattern]
       klick [options] -f filename
       klick [options] -i
       klick [options] -j

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.
