Metronome and Click Track in REAPER - Beginner REAPER DAW Tutorial
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 08. 2019
- Most times when recording you need some kind of timing reference and usually that means using a metronome. In this tutorial we'll look at how to set up a metronome in a couple different ways in REAPER.
How to enable/disable the metronome
How to change metronome settings
How to use samples for metronome sound
How to make tempo changes
What is Pre-Roll and Count-in?
How to make a click/metronome track
Actions for click track
People don't like the metronome of the metronome in REAPER, I have a pack of Metronome samples from other DAWs you can use instead. Sign up for my email list to download.

Awesome tutorial. I use the click track on probably 30% of my projects, but I should be using it for all. It's so powerful. Thanks for the reminder!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! New to reaper and could not figure out how to make a multi-tempo click track. Mixcraft is so much easier.🍻
This video just helped me out a bunch! I felt kinda dumb not knowing this, but am still really new to tracking drums and anything for that matter. Sincerely appreciate your help, man! Gonna finally start practicing to a click. 😅
Fun tips! I didn't know that you could change the click source properties once it was an audio track, and that it would follow BPM. I just messed with it and noticed it also follows time signature changes. Very cool!
Its amazing how much a free trial will give you that most other daws gives hardly nothing. So when payday arrives I'll be buying it. This amazing for the price thanks for the tutorials
This is just what I was looking for. I was making custom midi drum tracks for faster parts that are hard to lock in.
Thanks much! I broke my mind how to record a metronome. And you really helped me ❤
Very clear for a beginner!
THANK YOU! I was chasing after something like this for a while!
Those SWS actions are game changers!
The video so nice, i watched it twice. Thanks Jon.
GRAZIE. TI ABBRACCIO FORTISSIMO
how did you desynchronize the click track from the tempo grid at 6:37? moving the clip or slipping its contents all leave the clicks internally locked to the tempo grid for me and there's no way to manually shift the clicks. i can't find any information about this online. the only way to make any difference is playback rate stretching and still the clicks are locked to the grid despite being a different tempo. when set to a different rate, moving the clip slightly shifts the clicks (based on its starting point i presume) but once the clip is split the clicks are shifted again to match the respective grid synchronization.
edit - for anyone else looking for this, i found the option to unlock the synchronization under item settings: setting timebase. it's still very buggy when shifting the clip so i resorted to rendering and importing an audio file of the click track.
Thank you much! Very instructive.
Source Properties... It made me mad, why I change the click but click rack has a default sound. They made the same settings twice OMG
Thanks for video!
Second video from you I watched. You earned a suscriber
cool welcome friend
Thanks for the free downloads. 👍🏼
Thank You!!!
Wondering if you can change the tempo, as in a tempo change in the composition
has anybod experienced their metronome going out of time ? I've got a metronome and played it along side reapers inbuilt metranome and within a couple of bars its out of sync. Ive used a metronome app on my phone against both my metronome and reaper and again reapers went out of sync.
What does the "beat click length" do? I changed it to 8 & it still gives me 4 beats. I have no idea what it is supposed to do.
great video! thnxx (:
Thanks for this 😊
When I change the BPM in the transport bar I get cross fades automatically inserted when entering/exiting the double-time section of the click track. Is there any global preference I can set to disable that? Thx.
Great video! Thanks so much for this info mate. cheers.
How to I cut the count-in after all recording is done? (My count-in is in the EZD2 track. I have pick up notes in other tracks that I don’t want to cut.)
Thanks, i just needed the part how to put the click track in the project itself. ^^ Thank you. :)
I set up tempo and then insert my drums track, and what I get is drums adjusted to the tempo of the click.. so wtf??? How do I set tempo correctly if it does changes other tracks tempo all the time???
Another helpful one. Thanks.
So useful. Thanks...
Thanks. That was very helpful.
Perfect. thanks for the tip.
How to download your daws click pack? The link in the description leads to 404 page
hello.. is it possible to precisely ramp the tempo changes on the click track? like part of the click is at 120..then slowly goes to 130 then back for instance?..
yeah using tempo markers in the ruler, edit your marker for 130 and enable transition from previous marker.
Or if you show the tempo envelope (see View menu), you can draw in linear changes.
@@TheREAPERBlog thanks for the reply. I'm going to try that. It's a nice video to do. I don't find anything about that on CZcams. :)
I can only hear the cluck track in playback, ive been to the settings and changed it for recording but nothihg comes out of my monitors. What am i doing wrong ??
Any idea why the click track (using your second method) goes all crazy when I change the bpm? I tried 60 and it was fine but subdividing half-beats (so 8 per bar). I tried our requested tempo of 62 and it was suddenly uneven. A total mess. The beat pattern is still down as AAAA. The drop-down menu for AAAA has no other options.
I wanna ask you if here exist any topic or tutorial for some setting to automate the counting of any song you load to program so it matches with metronome if we want to set it ON while recording?? If you didn't understand i'm asking for setting to autofinding from program the bpm of any song loaded! Is this possible?? I'm asking cause some songs have multiple tempos instead of a song as Dream Theater as example or Iron Maiden.If with some setting i can have a tempo detection?Thank you
Sometimes I want swing in my click!
I know you can set swing for individual midi items but a setting that covered the entire project or section like you can with tempo would be awesome. The grid lines would honour swing and all items would snap to it.
Currently I create a midi item click track with the swing I need and loop that.
Nice vid. Jon do you have a video on using different time signatures within a single tune like a 3/4 time over 4/4 at different BPM so the 3 fits inside the 4/4 measure evenly? Thanks
Anyone know why the right clicking the metronome doesn’t work? Can’t access the controls. I’ve right clicked it for the the last 10 mins with no controls to alter it! Reaper can be frustrating
Thanks for your videos! I had a problem... I couldn't use the samples... I tried to do it like the video but it doesn't work the sound still the same for the metronome... Can you help me with this please???
The metronome/tempo setting has disappeared.. How do I bring it back. any schortcuts?
Thank you. However, when I click on 'metronome sound' > 'primary beat sample' and 'secondary beat sample' it just takes me to empty folders. No sounds there. :(
You need sounds 😀 I shared some on my site with this video
On a MAC and right clicking doesn't open the settings like yours does. SO frustrated. All I want to do is turn the volume up! YEs...I tried control+ click. NOTHING!
right-click is working elsewhere?
this can also be found in options menu
Hey man! Thanks and good blog! Learning a lot. Question. Im trying to set in source properties the Beat/Measure to 2, and I can,t find the way to set it where it still follows the grid. If i do the :click follow project tempo...its doesnt give the 1-2 click that i have without. Seems like theres no way to have a 1-2 click that follows the grid? Thanks!
Is there a drum machine plug in that's really simple that you can use as a click track?
Try Sitala
I signed up for the newsletter but I can't find the download link for the click samples. The website doesn't look any different. It's not like I'm signed in or anything.
it should be coming to your email automatically
@@TheREAPERBlog That's awesome, because I've always disliked Reaper's default click and I'm too lazy in my old age to build my own library :)
Thanks!
Is it possible to use swung eights?
CHAMP!!
Nevermind haha got ahead of myself
link to download subscribed and received nothing?
link please
Very helpful, but it would have been even better if you had explained how you opened all the menus you were flying through. Cheers!
But how do you change the default settings for the metronome?????
its a project setting. you can set as default for new projects by opening "project settings" and hit the 'save as default project settings'.
Or save as a project template and set the default template for new projects in Preferences: Project.
Is me or the click is gone? Cant hear it!! Hope you can fix it cause this is a mayor topic...thanks anyway!!
I've checked the video I uploaded and the public video. I think its fine.
👌
The metronome icon has changed.
What if it's in 3/4?
The metronome or click source will follow tempo and meter automatically. 3/4, 5/4 etc is no problem
Click is recording while tracking, what do I do?
headphones?
@@TheREAPERBlog I'm recording a guitar cab with a mic, I have headphones on and I turned down the interface level that goes to the monitors so there is no sound coming out of them.
Some clicks are missing in playback
what times in the video?
I just want it to okay the back beat. Not a big ask of Reaper
I just want my subwoofer to be the metronome so i can feel the time instead of hearing it lol
A couple products come to mind
- Soundbrenner Pulse watch
- Buttkicker haptic transducer
Free metronome samples pack... just pay for it. lmao
yeah running a mailing list costs ME a bunch of money every month.
You just have to put your email address in the form to get a bunch of free stuff. IT IS FREE for you.
Okay video. Not for beginners. Too fast, not very well explained. Tempo marker? Sounds like something I could use, but blows by too fast. Etc.
Three years later and NOPE!!!
