  • Count-In Length (Measures)

This defines the number of measures a 'Count In' should be. If the 'Count In' is at the very beginning of a project, then Reaper will wait for that number of measures before starting to record. If you select a place to record within a project, Reaper will start the 'count In' the set number of measures before the time that you want to record at.

  • Volume
    • Metronome Volume - Sets the overall volume of the metronome.


    • Secondary Beat Attenuation - This, in relation to the overall volume, sets the amount by which the secondary beats will be attenuated (or lowered in volume).
  • Sample Selection

You can also use Samples for your own metronome sounds.

  • Frequency of First Beat "xx" HZ
