david ..
an easier way that might be a solution for you is try this...
forget metronome...and in ptw if i remember (i use reaslband) just create a dp clik trak before getting into
recording midi. in rb i can do various alternatives also
like set up a regular clik trak. explore the feature
FILL TRAK WITH DRUM PATTERN.
OR assuming your external ridgeway has drums in it...
try recording a midi clik trak from your ridgeway.
ptw is very deep, ...also check out the drums view you can clik on drums and record them if i remember.

really go thru the ptw manual. lots of good stuff to discover. years ago i used to blow away big spending mates in big studios as to what ptw could do.
ptw is a bargain imho.

in your ridgeway manual see if there are settings stopping everything going back into the pc.
ie you want just what you want recorded to go into the pc.
