Repeat
Accent
This
setting
repeats
the
Accent
sound
when
using
a
time

with
more
than
one

such
as

You
can
try
this
out
by
doing
the
following:
1. Open
the
Metronome
settings,
and
chose
a
sound
for
the
Accent
that
is
different
from
both
the
Beat
and
the
Offbeat.
2. Leave
the
Repeat
Accent
checkbox
empty.
3. Make
sure
the
Click
in
Play
option
is
active,
so
that
you
can
hear
the
Metronome
during
playback.
4. Set
the
time
signature
to
12/8,
and
either
click
the
Play
button
or
press
the
Space
Bar.
You’ll
notice
the
Accent
is
only
heard
every
12
beats.
However,
if
you
go
through
steps
3
and
4
with
the
Repeat
Accent
function
switched
on,
the
Accent
will
be
heard
ever
3
beats.
