.Vb 1
\& klick [options] [bars] [meter] tempo[\-tempo2/accel] [pattern]
.Ve
.PP
Plays a simple metronome with the given meter and tempo. To play a 3/4 beat at 120 bpm:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& klick 3/4 120
.Ve
.PP
You can also specify a \*(L"target\*(R" tempo and acceleration rate, to use klick
as a speed trainer. To play a 4/4 beat starting at 80 bpm, gradually
increasing the tempo by 1 bpm every 10 measures until reaching 120 bpm:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& klick 80\-120/10
.Ve
.PP
Once the final tempo is reached, klick will continue playing at a constant tempo.
.PP
.Vb 1
\& klick [options] \-f filename
.Ve
.PP
Loads a tempo map from a file. This allows for more complex setups
including meter and tempo changes etc. See \fBTempo Map File Format\fR.
.PP
.Vb 1
\& klick [options] \-i
.Ve
.PP
Runs klick in interactive mode, allowing you to change tempo and meter
while klick is running. The keyboard commands available in this mode
are described in Interactive Mode.
.PP
.Vb 1
\& klick [options] \-j
.Ve
.PP
In this mode, klick gets all tempo information from \s-1JACK.\s0 Just run
a sequencer as \s-1JACK\s0 transport master, and klick will play a simple
metronome pattern in sync with \s-1JACK\s0 transport.

.SH "TEMPO MAP FILE FORMAT"
.IX Header "TEMPO MAP FILE FORMAT"
A tempo map is a plain text file, consisting of an arbitrary number of lines
which will be played sequentially. Each line must have the following format:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& [label:] bars [meter] tempo [pattern] [volume]
.Ve
.PP
Everything in brackets is optional, and can be omitted to use the default. '#'
indicates the start of a comment, empty lines are ignored.
.IP "label" 4
.IX Item "label"
An optional name that can be used to refer to this line, and start
playback at this position.
.IP "bars" 4
.IX Item "bars"
The number of bars for this tempo map entry.
.IP "meter" 4
.IX Item "meter"
The meter, written as beats/denominator. This is optional, the default
is 4/4. The tempo in beats per minute, with a \*(L"beat\*(R" always referring
to quarter notes, no matter what the meter actually is.
.IP "tempo" 4
.IX Item "tempo"
.RS 4
.PD 0
.IP "tempo" 4
.IX Item "tempo"
.PD
Sets the tempo for the duration of the whole tempo map entry.
.IP "tempo1\-tempo2" 4
.IX Item "tempo1-tempo2"
Specifies the tempo for the start and the end of this
entry, with a gradual tempo change in between.
.IP "tempo1,tempo2,..." 4
.IX Item "tempo1,tempo2,..."
Sets a different tempo for each beat. The
number of
tempo values must be the same as the total number of
beats for this entry (bars * beats).
.RE
.RS 4
.RE
.IP "pattern" 4
.IX Item "pattern"
This can be used to alter the pattern of accented/normal beats. Use 'X'
(upper case) for accented beats, 'x' (lower case) for normal beats, and
\&'.' for silence. So for example, given a 6/8 measure, and you only want
the 1st and 4th beat to be played, you could use the pattern 'X..x..';
the default is 'Xxxxxx'.
.IP "volume" 4
.IX Item "volume"
Allows you to set a different volume for each part, default is 1.0.

.SH "CLICK TRACK EXPORT"
.IX Header "CLICK TRACK EXPORT"
By default, klick connects to \s-1JACK\s0 for audio output. To export a click track to
an audio file instead, use the \-W parameter to specify an output filename. The
file type is determined by extension, supported formats are \s-1WAV, AIFF, FLAC,\s0 Ogg
Vorbis (with libsndfile >= 1.0.18).
The \-r parameter can be used to set the sample rate of the exported audio,
default is 48000 Hz.
