Chapter 4. External Control

KMetronome can be controlled using its DCOP interface, System Realtime and System Exclusive MIDI messages.

DCOP Interface

KMetronome provides some functions through its DCOP interface. You can use a DCOP-enabled program to control KMetronome like kdcop or the commandline utility dcop.

For instance, these commands can be used from a shell prompt:

$ dcop kmetronome transport play
$ dcop kmetronome transport stop
$ dcop kmetronome transport cont
$ dcop kmetronome transport setTempo 150
$ dcop kmetronome transport setTimeSignature 3 8
