Chapter 4: Working with Pro Tools M-Powered 27

Setting a Tempo

You can set the tempo for your session by using

the Song Start Marker, located in the Tempo

Ruler.

To set the session tempo with the Song Star t

Marker:

1 In the Tempo Ruler, double-click the Song

Start Marker.

2 In the Tempo Change dialog, enter the BPM

(beats per minute) value you will use for the ses-

sion (so the inserted tempo event replaces the

default tempo).

3 To base the BPM value on a different note

value (such as an eighth-note rather than the

default quarter-note), select a note value in the

Resolution section.

4 Click OK.

Using the Click Plug-In

The Click plug-in creates an audio click during

session playback. This works like a metronome

that you can use as a tempo reference when per-

forming and recording.

The Click plug-in is synchronized to the tempo

and meter of the Pro Tools session, and follows

any changes in tempo and meter.

Click Parameters

MIDI In LED Illuminates each time the Click

plug-in receives a click message from the

Pro Tools application, indicating the tempo.

Accented Controls the output level of the ac-

cent beat (beat 1 of each bar) of the audio click.

Unaccented Controls the output level of the un-

accented beats of the audio click.
