Sounds for a Click

[Timmmm]

Hi,

i want to start recording to a click now, but the cubase click is absolutely not good.
Do you have some recommendations, what sound i can use for the click?

I am playing mostly heavy guitars to it.

Thanks!

throwing a shaker between each bar (with a beep at the beginning of each bar) works good and allows you to maintain some swing

I like the LM-7 sidestick. The note is C#1.

Only if it was recorded by THE Bruce Dickinson.

There was a freakin' hysterical video here a few months ago of a guy tracking metal drums to a click that was this really nerdy, hyperactive CG voice going "1-and-2-and-3-and-4-and-1-and-2...!" So that's my vote.

Dr. Beat can't be beat!

And-a-one-y-and-a-two-y-and-a-one-y-and-a-two-y!

I've found a jam block to work pretty well.

I kind of want to make a home made version of that click in reason. But I am lazy so I don't see it happening.
