Setting Up the Metronome

If you would like to hear the metronome (click) while recording, you can set this up in
the Metronome project settings.

To open the Metronome project settings, do one of the following:

m

Choose File > Project Settings > Metronome (or use the Open Metronome Project
Settings key command).

m

Click the Settings button in the Arrange Toolbar, and choose Metronome from the pop-
up menu.

m

Control-click the Metronome button in the Transport, and choose Metronome Settings
from the pop-up menu.

The Metronome Project Settings window combines all settings for:

 A software instrument metronome sound source called KlopfGeist, which is turned

on by default. You can disable it with the Software Click Instrument (KlopfGeist)
checkbox.

 The Environment’s MIDI Click object (see “

MIDI Click Object

” on page 932). You can

specify the MIDI Port it is sent to (All, by default). To turn off the MIDI metronome
output, choose Off in the MIDI Port pop-up menu.

You can use these click sources in isolation, or in combination with each other.
