Activating the Metronome Click
To align your recording with the bars and beats displayed in the ruler, you can activate
a click or metronome.
• Activate the Metronome button in the Pilot Zone.
• Adjust the metronome volume using the slider.
The metronome is automatically set to add a two-bar precount before recording starts.
You can now specify the project tempo in the Tempo field, see “The Tempo (TEMPO)”
on page 64 for more information. This affects the speed of the metronome click. The
default setting is 120 which means 120 BPM or beats per minute.
Adding a Drum Loop
Now, add some drums to the project.
Adding a drum loop to your project is also useful for supporting the metronome when
you are recording bass or guitar.
1. Click the MediaBay button in the lower right corner of the Multi Zone.
2. In the MediaBay, click the “Show Filter” button to open the filter section.
3. Set the Category column to “Drum&Perc” and the Sub Category column to
“Beats”.
4. In the Style column, select a style that suits the guitar line you want to record.
