NOTE
Be aware that the metronome starts sounding
from the instant that recording/playback begins.
Therefore, if you begin in the middle of a song, the
metronome sound and the pulse of the music might
be out of sync. Moreover, if you turn the metronome
volume up high, the accented beat of some sounds
might become difficult to distinguish.
