Kaatza Music Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 With Logic 9, I used to use a midi click for the metronome. I could always hear it and it never distracted from the music I was working on. In Logic X, I have never been able to find a midi click metronome. The main metronome is either too loud or if I turn it down, too soft, and it is obnoxious sounding no matter where I put the settings. What am I missing! How do I get just a click metronome in Logic Pro X? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Choose File > Project Settings > Metronome and try adjusting the "Tonality" slider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaatza Music Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 I tried adjusting the tonality bar all the way up and down. Still didn’t get any sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I tried adjusting the tonality bar all the way up and down. Still didn’t get any sound. Well... now I'm confused. That setting adjusts what you call "the main metronome" which you said was either too loud or too soft... so I'm assuming you could hear it???

Atlas007 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Perhaps the Klopfgeist was replaced by another plugin or replaced by an external (MIDI) click source? BTW, which MIDI device is playing your MIDI click? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaatza Music Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 The Klopfgeist works but no matter what I set it to, I can’t stand it. In Logic 9, I had a midi click. I had the Klopfgeist turned off. I have no clue what played the Midi click. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaatza Music Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 What does the MIDI Click section do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 What does the MIDI Click section do? It sends MIDI Notes on bars, beats etc... on the MIDI ports selected in the "Ports" pop-up menu. You need an external instrument connected to that port for it to receive those notes and turn them into a Metronome sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaatza Music Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 So if I had an instrument on MIDI channel A10, it would act as a metronome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlas007 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 In your current setting, the Klopfgeist is not used. Some other plugin or instrument (either internally or externally) is receiving the C#1 notes from Logic's metronome clock... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulcristo Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 And am I right the Tonality slider has no effect on MIDI-generated click? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlas007 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 For clarity sake, I think Apple should add in the metronome settings pane, a vertical divider line between the audio click's and the MIDI click's parameters... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
