Is there a click or metronome in Audacity 2.0.0?

Post by timrocker » Fri Nov 06, 2015 5:18 am

Hi Forum,
I just got into using Audacity on my Linux laptop. Ubuntu, I believe.

I have 2.0.0. I looked everywhere in the tool panels areas, don't see a click track or metronome built in. Is there one?

Any help greatly appreciated!
Tim

Thank you, Koz!

Is it possible to get a different metronome to work with Audacity? These three sound choices weren't very rhythmically robust.

Probably whatever you can do in Nyquist programming language.

There's also plugins and add-ons.

How do you mean "rhythmically robust"?
What sound would you prefer?
