✨ NAME ✨

jack_mclk_dump — JACK MIDI Beat Clock Decoder 🥁

like. it dumps. but make it MIDI clock. iconic behaviour honestly.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jack_mclk_dump [ OPTIONS ] [JACK-port]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. options go first, the JACK port goes last, and both are optional-ish in the way that only the port truly is, iykyk 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

jack_mclk_dump — JACK MIDI Clock dump.

fr fr. that's the official one-liner. the tool shows up, it dumps the clock, it leaves. main character energy, no notes 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -b, --bandwidth <1/Hz> — the DLL bandwidth, measured in 1/Hz. default is 6.0 if you just don't say anything, which is valid, we love a low-effort queen 🫶
• -h, --help — shows you this help text and then dips. the "hi bestie here's how to use me" flag 🌈
• -n, --newline — prints a newline after each Tick. so every Tick gets its own lil line, very organized, very clean-girl aesthetic ✨
• -V, --version — prints the version information and exits. the "who am I, what am I" flag 👑

This tool subscribes to a JACK Midi Port and prints received Midi beat clock and BPM to stdout. 🎧
