Hi all, klick has been around for almost a year, but I figured no one will know about it if I don't tell anybody. So here's a new version, and the first official announcement. klick is an advanced command-line based metronome for JACK. It allows you to define complex tempo maps for entire songs or performances. Its features include: * Support for tempo maps, including arbitrary meters, tempo changes, accelerando/ritardando and more. * Three built-in sounds (borrowed from Ardour, GTick and FreePats), plus ability to load your own samples. * JACK transport sync support (master/slave). * No GUI ;) Get it here: http://das.nasophon.de/klick/ Cheers, Dominic
