Setting up a click track

[michelle]

Hey there

I'm pretty new to all of this and have only used Audacity before.

Having issues setting up a click track on cakewalk. I followed all the steps correctly (I think!) in a YouTube tutorial https://youtu.be/jkEtYXo_LOI  but the metronome doesn't start when I press record. Nothing happens. hmm 

Not sure what I am doing wrong. 

Any help appreciated! 

Thanks

Have you checked the User's guide, Pg 255 talks about how to use and setup the metronome.

Page 1503 shows the metronome settings.  If you use the "Audio Metronome" you specify a bus output to which it is supposed be routed. Even if you don't here anything you should see the bus's meters moving when you hit play or record if you have the appropriate buttons enabled as specified on pg 255
