Does anyone else think that the metronome is too quiet?

I can't seem to make it loud enough.

And yes, I realize I can turn down my tracks, but it's a pain having to go through and reset all the levels.

I stated this when Ren first came out--nobody was feeling me on it. In comparison to past MPCs, and current beat machines--I believe that the metronome should be louder on the Ren/Studio. It gets lost after the first track of music is programmed--to me.

Seems fine to me, they could raise the max volume for it a little bit, wouldnt hurt

you cant switch up metronome sound like you can on MPC 2500/1000 w/JJOS ?

nope^

we run out of things to moan about so it's a metromoan




go hard go tambourine

I prefer the default metronome sound anyways, not really concerned with what my metronome is sounding like as long as it keep me on beat.

I think akai is too quiet honestly

I turn off the metronome. I hate that tick tock sh!t.

The MPC Ren's default metronome is the MPC Click as seen in hardware MPCs like the 2000XL. But there are other sound options available. MPCs have had customizable metronomes years before the JJ OS.

I do believe the Ren's metronome is too quiet; I keep it on max volume. Anything lower than that is unusable to me. I am just suprised it has taking forum members several months to discuss this.

I mentioned this a while back on some thread, but no one really gave any response to it.

I have to agree also. It's is the quietest mpc, I ever owned. I sometimes find it a bother.

i dont use the metronome once i record the first track so it doesnt bug me.. BUT, you should def be able to adjust the volume of that (up more i guess... cause u can adjust volume already, it just starts at 100, like everything else.. which is frustrating sometimes)

This was my first thing ive noticed when I used my Ren
I wanted that loud THUMP I used to hear on my fathers 2500XL or 4000

But that was VERY minimal to all the things i had issues with on the Ren so i never brought it up

This definitely should be addressed in a future update, hopefully someone can tweet this thread to Pete since I see he actually replies to them
