I'm on 64bit to it works for me its worth a try

Ok...so..it only does this when you choose AUDIO METRONOME.  When you choose midi metronome, it works perfectly.  Looks like energy xt is 32 bit.  I am on 64 bit.  Thanks ..maybe I will try it anyways.

That makes sense since the Audio and MIDI metronomes are running off of separate engines, so a bug in one wouldn't necessarily affect the other. For now you can use the MIDI metronome and trigger an external hardware synth, or you can just make a metronome MIDI track and draw in 8th notes or whatever you want for 4 bars, turn the clip into a loop, and roll it out for the length of the project. Then have that MIDI track trigger TTS-1 or some other lightweight, GM synth.

Wonder why i never had this before I reloaded? I have not changed anything, just reloaded onto the ssd.  I had Maschine working great before.  Oh well, I will keep playing with it.  Do me a favor though and let me know when you have time to talk to the techs about it.  I'd like to know if there is a fix on the way sometime soon.  Your workarounds will work for now.  Do you have to have the metronome trigger an external synth only, or can I setup tts, load an instrument and let it trigger that track (not to fond of having to mute and unmute all the time.) Again...thanks ...DUDE. "Careful man...there's a beverage here"-my favorite quote.

A couple notes from my setup: 
    WinXP Sp3, Dual 2.8 cpu
    Sonar X1b, Maschine 1.6.2, RME FF800 with ASIO drivers
    (note that stand alone Maschine without Sonar works perfectly)

I am unable to record midi info at all from the Maschine controller. I am also experiencing very high CPU usage (in the 60 to 100% range) when just playing a simple loop. Higher spikes cause general instability and slowness. 
Although my system has been 100% stable with all other software, Maschine isnt quite there yet with X1b. For example, i had to change my ASIO settings to 256 samples where i usually use it at the lowest (64 samples) Also of note, i cant get Maschine's current loop to stop once Sonar starts it. 
I have not yet tried launching Maschine in stand alone outside of Sonar. I might try this.

By contrast, Microtonic-- -a similar drum machine without as many samples--- stops and starts and loops perfectly in time, no problems at all.

I don't agree with all of your recent "should be in..." comments, but you do know that only the moderators can move threads anyway, right?

Which ones don't you agree with Susan? Maybe the moderators can take a hint.

They don't need a hint from me ;) -- Seth weighed in on this one, for example, and he could have moved it if he wanted to.

Maschine is software that can use an optional controller. Since the issue is with SONAR and Maschine this thread will stay here.

How about the others Seth?
