Sacré:
klick is an advanced command-line based metronome
for JACK. Features
include tempo maps, four built-in sounds to choose from, JACK transport
support, and a lot more.
Changes in version 0.8.0:
* There's a new "interactive mode" that allows you to change tempo,
meter and volume while klick is running. This one was long overdue.
Does that mean you can change a tempomap (a file) without having to
restart klick? That would be awesome :) !
It's in fact possible using OSC. This part of klick's OSC interface is
currently undocumented and still needs some work, but you could do
something like this from a shell, or maybe a script (send_osc is part of
pyliblo):
# start klick, listening on port 1234
klick -o 1234
send_osc 1234 /klick/metro/set_type map
# load and play first tempo map
send_osc 1234 /klick/map/load_file /path/to/foo.map
send_osc 1234 /klick/metro/start
# play another tempo map
send_osc 1234 /klick/map/load_file /path/to/bar.map
send_osc 1234 /klick/metro/start
send_osc 1234 /klick/quit
