Playback and Transport
Nuendo offers multiple methods and functions to control playback and transport.
Metronome Click
You can use the metronome click as a timing reference for playing along and recording. The two parameters that govern the timing of the metronome are project tempo and the time signature.
Click Patterns
Click patterns allow you to set up a custom metronome click.
Click Pattern Editor
The Click Pattern Editor allows you to set up a click pattern for your project to create new grooves and feels for the metronome click. This is useful if you want to create a triplet pattern for a 4/4 signature, for example.
