Creating a Click Track

To create a click track with the Click plug-in:

1 Ensure that the Options > Click is enabled.

2 Choose Track > Create Click Track.

Pro Tools creates a new Auxiliary Input track named “Click” with the Click plug-in already inserted. In the Edit window, the track’s Track Height is set to Mini.

To manually create a click track with the Click plug-in:

1 Select Options > Click to enable the Click option (or enable the Metronome button in the Transport).

2 Create new a mono Auxiliary Input track and insert the Click plug-in.

3 Select a click sound preset.

4 Choose Setup > Click/Countoff and set the Click and Countoff options as desired.

 

The Note, Velocity, Duration, and Output options in this dialog are for use with MIDI instrument-based clicks and do not affect the Click plug-in.
