Am I the only one who uses a custom metronome? I think the stock one on mpc's suck. I sampled some drum stick clicks. What sounds is everyone else using.

stock one here : ) it's not so bad, comparing to one on su700, which can't be changed...

Stock...I tried using custom drum sounds, but preferred the stock.

You just load up a sound you want and apply it to the pads. Then you go into the click sound screen and change it. It makes a huge difference in my opinion when you have a nice loud metronome u can actually hear

Stock, I usually just record with it for the first thing I'm playing then turn it off

Nice! I didn't know this could be done either and I've always hated the MPC click...very cool.

Stock. Like Perks, I use it for recording the first track and then turn it off.

I've never found the MP's metronome to be inaudible, and it's a darn-sight less annoying than the Atari ST's! :lol:
