Metronome problem
I am literally new to DAW's. and have no knowledge at all yet. Am still trying to grasp how to record in Music Creator 7. I recorded some phrases using the metronome when recording. When I play back I always have the metronome embedded in the recording. How do I go about it please? I do not want to record the metronome as well. Thanks Lino

Welcome to the forum. It may not be in the recording; you may have Metronome on Playback enabled. Press P on the computer keyboard and look for the metronome settings and disable it for playback, if it's enabled. If it's already disabled, that's a whole different problem and we'll need more information from you, like what is your Operating System and what is your sound card or audio interface. Plus, how and what are you recording (audio and/or MIDI; with a microphone or line in) and what you record settings are.

Hi. I think it is embedded in the recording, as when I export the file the metronome is still there. Metronome on playback is disabled, because when I switch it on I can hear both metronomes. My operating system is Windows 10 64bit. I am using a Steinberg Yamaha Audio interface. And I record through Line in Audio with my breath controller. Tks

Solo each track in your project one at a time to see if the met is recorded in any of them. If not, manually Select each track in the project while holding down the Ctrl button. Each track should become highlighted. Go to Tracks and choose Bounce To Track(s). For Preset, use What You Hear as a starting point. Source, use Master if your audio tracks are routed through a master bus, or the sound card output if it isn't. Click OK. Once the mixdown is completed, listen to it to hear if the metronome is in it. If not, export that mixdown.

As you learn more about recording, you may want to stop using the metronome altogether. I did. I switched to using my drum track as the metronome and enabling a two measure count in with the metronome turned off. That gives me my count in for proper timing and then the drums start, or another instrument is playing that keeps the time in sync. Just another way to slice the pie.

Agree with GHacker.....much better to figure a way without that metronome in future....always been more hassle to me than ever worth. It drove me crazy having to juggle it on/off etc and I think I ran into your "recorded" prob early on also but far too long ago to recall what/how/why....I put it to rest long ago and never looked back or needed it again. The advice above should help ya....hope so ;o)

Hi! If you are recording audio maybe the metronome sound could be being recorded along with your voice or instrument (this could happen if you are using an audio mixer connected to the PC, for example, and every sound produced by the audio device should pass through it, before coming back to PC). In my case I always disable the 'main' button on my mixer when I want record audio with metronome, but I enable the 'control room' button, which allows me to hear only with the earphones. As the beats won't be playing on the speakers, they won't be recorded by the mic as well. Hopes this helps! Best regards.

I had the same problem. In addition to making sure only record is checked and not playback in the Metronone settings, my solution was to open the Metronome and check what is selected for the "Output". My Home Studio defaults to "Metronome". I have to change the output to my mixing interface instead of Metronome and now I hear it when I record and not when I play back.
