Yeah, you got it.  It's the way you would create a new bus and all, but Catus's picture is referring to the setting in the Metronome Preferences and not the metronome bus/track itself.  As you may be aware, you can choose any bus or output available in the Mtrnm's Preferences and then from there you can choose any available output from within Mtrnm's bus output.  So, under Preferences choose the Metronome bus and then in the actual Metronome bus/track's output choose the Master bus or route it to your preferred output (say like an alternate hardware output like the headphones if your hardware interface has such an output).
 
Does that cover it?
 
I just thought of something...  If you are routing your Metronome Bus to the Master Bus, what is the output of the Master Bus?
 
Kind regards,

@dappa1 - what are you referring to?  There's no problem in SONAR regarding the Metronome routing.

Dappa1, I think you are referring to the FX toggle thing am I right?  That's a new one to me since I never experienced that.

The Master Bus is usually routed to the first pair of hardware outputs. The basic template shipped with SONAR Platinum should have the Master, Preview and Metronome buses already defined.

Technot & scook,
 
Thank you for your suggestions.  FYI, there is not a metronome track already set up when I open the Basic Template in a new Platinum file.
 
I inserted a bus, named it Metronome.  In the metronome preferences I chose metronome.  In the actual metronome bus/track output I chose Master.  In the master bus output I chose and tried starting from the 1st one listed every output listed from Platinum reading my sound card's inputs and outputs.  I also tried sending both the metronome and the master track's output to every ASIO output listed.
 
As stated previously, I have tried toggling the FX.  I just can't get Platinum's metronome to work.  I have all tracks unmuted.
 
Thank you for responding to my frustration.
