Other Metronome Settings
• “Click while recording” checkbox: The metronome click is automatically turned on for
recording. This is the same as activating the Metronome button in the Transport bar
during recording.
• “Only during count-in” checkbox: When this option is active, the recording click is only
audible during the project count-in, and is then turned off.
• “Click while playing” checkbox: The metronome click is automatically turned on for
playback. This is the same as activating the Metronome button in the Transport bar
during playback.

divisions. For example, two or three notes may be sent simultaneously at the beginning
of each measure. If this option is unselected, the metronome only transmits one note
at a time.
