Use the source - quick, dirty & pragmatic.
Assuming you're on debian:

sudo apt-get build-dep caps
sudo apt-get install fakeroot dpkg-dev
cd /tmp/
apt-get source caps
cd caps-0.4.2
ed  Click.cc << EOF
/"bpm"
+
+
s/244/360/
w
EOF
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
sudo dpkg -i ../caps*deb


There may be issues - e.g. internal timing or accuracy with faster BPM.
You'll need to read the source or ask Tim to be sure.
