, then load up a bass tone.
One more thing: This example showed how to manually enter and edit notes. For a more mu-
sical way to compose, lots of people use an external MIDI controller such as a MIDI keyboard
or M-Audio TriggerFinger to let them play and perform instead of only writing and editing
with the mouse. If you want learn how to do this, see “Using a MIDI Controller/Keyboard to
Compose” on page 20
Using a Click (Metronome)
A click track (also known as a metronome) gives you a steady time reference while recording
tracks. Pro Tools lets you create a specialized click track that comes with the Click plug-in al-
ready inserted on it.
To add a click track:
1 Choose Track > Create Click Track. Pro Tools creates a new Auxiliary Input track named
“Click” with the Click plug-in already inserted.
2 Choose View > Mix Window to display the Mix window.
3 At the top of the track, select the Click plug-in.
One long note (for a loop)
Five different notes (kick, snares, and other)
