Spending more time on Jamulus with band mates - Have been asked to provide a “click” from my xs7.  I can create a “click” track in Performance Mode using a specific arpeggio (3817) from a Drum Kit.  This leaves me 3 other voices in the Performance to create the sounds I need.  All good.

But...most of my songs are in Song Mode.  Is it possible to create a “click” track in Song Mode?  I can pull up the PDR Drum Voice, but the cant get the repeated “click” at tempo “X” to occur.  In other songs, I can produce a specific drum voice in the song (Cuica for example), but I am having no luck producing a repeatable click.

Thanks - TH

Perhaps this will be helpful:

Ahhh...the click is separate and distinct from the song itself.  Great!

And I can use/hear the sequencer click from Song Mode in Performance Mode also!

Thank you! Thank you!

How do I increase the volume of the click?

You’re welcome.

The metronome click is easy to use, but has some limitations (which is why I said “perhaps"). From [SEQ SETUP] > [F1]Click, the volume can be set to the maximum of 127. If that’s not sufficiently loud, in Utility mode the L+R Gain can be lowered from the default +6dB to +0db, so that the click is effectively a bit louder relative to the main sounds.

That may still not be loud enough enough, and in addition the click is always sent to L+R, which might not always be ideal.

If you want to set up a user-created click in Song mode, it’s not difficult…
Press [MIXING] > [EDIT]
Select [1]~[16] and choose a Drum kit for the Part.
(If Parameter with Voice is turned on beforehand, Arps from that kit will be available.)
Press [F2]ARP Main
Turn “Switch” and “Hold” on - tempo can also be set
Press [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] so that’s on (button lit)
If you brought in the kit’s Arp’s try them
Otherwise, select one or more appropriate Arps

Of course, with the above there’s much more control over volume. In addition, instead of L+R an assignable output can be chosen if you want to keep the click sound separate.
