Click Track Play Back Problem

[SoCalRodger66]

Been using BL for a while and have never had this issue before. I create click tracks via sending the metronome to an aux track. Never had a problem. Now when I record, the click sounds are different from recording to playback. While recording the click track, I usually use the high and low ping sounds. While recording, it sounds totally fine but when I play back the just recorded click track, it's a completely different and unusable sound. Sounds like muddy monotones with velocities varying throughout.

I don't recall changing any settings as I use a template for creating tracks. Any advice?

Is the “BL” BandLab – Music Making Studio the mobile app or Cakewalk by Bandlab the Windows DAW?

Sorry for not clarifying. Cakewalk DAW on a windows desktop

When you are playing back the recorded click, have you removed (turned off) the IRT click metronome? They would only need a couple of samples difference in latency to cause phasing/amplitude issues.

[SoCalRodger66]

Thanks for replying. Yes, when playing back, I only have the recorded click track playing. The metronome is disengaged.

No good ideas what might be going on. Are you recording mono or stereo from the patch point? Can you see distortion or variable amplitude in the waveform? Can you post a short audio clip?

Here's a 30 sec video showing the issue.

When playing back, set the input to None on the click track.

I can recreate your signal flow; 

Metronome output (in Preferences) set to SFX bus, SFX bus output set to AUX 1.
Aux track input set to AUX 1 (is it L, R, orS???) bus.

Are there ANY EFX instances on the SFX bus bin?

You might want to REDO the video with the Track header showing ALL fields, and also the Inspector panel open to Aux 1 & Master (instead of ProChannel.
That would help in seeing your routing.

Notice during recording there is a stereo track being created and  the meter is  showing as thus.  On playback the waveform is mono and the left meter is active? So this is something you are doing weird in the routing. It should create the stereo track.  This is possibly what you are hearing.
