route the metronome to another output pair, which can be useful in performance when
you want to hear the metronome sound through a separate audio output (for example,
a headphone mix) and not through the main outputs.

To change the audio output for the metronome sound

Choose MainStage > Preferences.

2

In the Metronome section of the General tab, choose a different audio output from the
Output pop-up menu.

You can also change the volume of the metronome relative to the overall audio output.
