I am considering buying a 788. I have not found any info if the 788 has an internal click track. Help please.
 
Hey Reel.....

Thanks for the reply. I am very new to this. I looked at the manual link that you sent. It says there is a metronome built in. Sounds a bit compliceted to use. What do you use if you don't use the internal metronome? I have not ever used midi. I have read about a midi time map. I know these questions are very basic to you but like I said I am very new at the recording thing.
 
The metronome is the click track. you can also set up a drum machine to be your metronome and record it onto a track, but that takes up a track.
 
You guys,...

I'm SO SORRY for not reading carefully enough, before posting!

I read that 788 manual dang index, and several sections, and I did not find either "click" track or "metronome".

Geez,... my mistake,... sorry!!! :eek:

Click to expand...
It can take up a track, which is usually the way I do it...losing the track hasn't been a problem for me. I believe you could also just feed the drum machine into an input if you've got an extra one available - but this would require the use of MIDI to sync everything up later.

The advantage of using a drum machine is that it is much easier to adjust the click volume using a recorded track than it is using the internal metronome. Plus I prefer being able to alter the sound used for the click and/or the rhythm.

HTH,

Reel Person, are you ok?
You said "I looked at the manual link that you sent. It says there is a metronome built in. Sounds a bit compliceted to use. What do you use if you don't use the internal metronome?"

So it sounded to me like you were confused and didn't realize that the metronome was a click. I was just trying to point that out and also tell you what I do instead of using the internal one.

Try some decaf, with enough cream and sugar it tastes almost the same.
