differing meters (4/4, 3/4, 6/8, etc., default 4/4),
differing tempo (always in quarter beats per minute, default 120) with
– one tempo per bar or even one tempo per beat, or
– smooth tempo changes with configurable acceleration, and
custom beat patterns (tick/tock/silence on each beat), default being emphasis
(tick) on first beat, normal sound (tock) on others.

Navigation The display indicates the part properties and position in track as such:
Metronome Track
---------------
"Interlude"
3/4@120 V-25
P2/13: B1/5+2
In this example, the part label is "Interlude", the meter is 3/4 and the tempo 120 quarter
beats per minute (bpm). The volume setting is at -25 and this is the second part of a
track with 13 total. In that part, the position is at the second beat of the first bar of
five.
The syntax of programmed tracks in tempomap files follows the format defined by
http://das.nasophon.de/klick/. Actually, the goal is to keep compatibility between klick
and this Rockbox metronome. The parts of a track are specified one line each in this
scheme (pieces in [] optional):
[name:] bars [meter ]tempo[-tempo2[*accel|/accel] [pattern] [volume]
The bar count and tempo always have to be specified, the rest is optional.
