I'm trying to change the count-in. The melody starts on pick-up beat 2(I'm in 4/4). What seems to be default is hi-hat on 1 & 3, then 1 and the melody starts. First, I'd like to have 1, 2, 3, 4, and then 1, so that the student can follow the count-in. In Preferences-->Count-in/Met., I can choose Audible Lead-in, with the instrument as Bass Drum 1 [36]. Pattern=1234 1234.

The hi-hat isn't loud enough for the student to hear. Why doesn't any of this change to what I'm looking for?
