Overview

Drumstick Metronome is a MIDI metronome with QT interface based on the ALSA sequencer. It is a tool for musicians and music students to keep the rhythm while playing musical instruments. It uses MIDI for sound generation instead of digital audio, allowing low CPU usage, and very accurate timing thanks to the ALSA sequencer.

Standard Options

The following options apply to all Qt5 applications.

-widgetcount: Print debug message at the end about number of widgets left undestroyed and maximum number of widgets existed at the same time.
