Hi
Is it possible to have a click track playing (metronome?) through the entire duration of a track?

I realise that may seem a strange question given that drums are available but this is why.

I have a number of songs with long breaks where all instruments are silenced. During that time I am working out and playing some solo lines. It would be good to be able to keep a guide click track going whilst I am working on this so that I always finish my line bang on the beat when the 'band' comes back in.

Hope that makes sense.
Cheers
Mark

Hey there,

Thanks for the quick response. I am using a Mac and all I can see is a check box for Metronome during recording, nothing for playback. See screen shot.

Looks like yet another short-change on the Mac version frown

Cheers
Mark

Ooops.

When I check the forums I generally sort by "new," and sometimes I don't realize that I've strayed into the Mac forums. :-/

Yeah,

I checked the online manual for the Mac version, and it looks like you're S.O.L. :-(
