Accent handles the downbeat, Beat handles the rest, and Division fills the space between. Give each voice its own sound, level, pitch, pan, and source—then mute what the arrangement does not need.
METRONOME INSTRUMENT / 1.0.0-beta.3
Click Designer
Click Designer is a flexible metronome instrument for Logic Pro: three independent voices, a cue map for changing the pulse, and a separate visuals companion for scoring sessions.
ACCENT
BEAT
DIVISION
Three independently shaped voices.
One steady pulse.
WHAT CLICK DESIGNER DOES
Built around the pulse.
Hover a feature to open it.
Build up to 24 cue sections on the timeline. Each one can follow the current pulse, switch to a different rate, mute the click, or force a particular voice. Cue changes land at their exact musical position.
Follow Meter puts the Accent voice on the downbeat. Turn it off and the pattern grid lets every step cycle through Off, Accent, Beat, and Division. It stays anchored to the timeline through meter changes and locates.
Lock to the host by default, trigger Click Designer from MIDI notes, or use its internal tempo for practice with the transport stopped. MIDI mode can use separate accent and beat notes, or velocity to decide which voice fires.
Set the Division voice to 1/8, 1/8T, 1/16, or 1/16T. It has its own voice controls, so the detail can be quieter, brighter, or somewhere else in the stereo field than the main click.
Choose from 28 synthesized sounds across Bells, Blocks, Classic, Rim & Sticks, Shakers, Tuned, and Digital—or load WAV, AIFF, and FLAC files per voice. User audio travels with the plug-in state, keeping sessions portable.
Click for a chosen number of bars from playback, then fall silent. You can also make Click Designer play only while recording, or keep it running while the transport is stopped.
A separate companion display for scoring sessions, built around a scrolling streamer and a fixed punch line. Put it on a stage monitor when the room needs a visual cue as well as a click.
