Summary0008269: Allow metronome to play subdivisions
DescriptionAs far as I know, Ardour's metronome only plays on quarter notes. Would it be possible to add subdivisions, such as eighth notes?
TagsNo tags attached.

It's in "beats" rather than quarter notes. E.g. Change the time signature from 4/4 to 8/8 and you'll get the metronome on eighth notes.

(I still think it would be a good feature though.)

I have tried doing that but then the grid adjusts. It would be nice to be able to keep the grid as is so as to not confuse editing. Changing a session property as a workaround doesn't make sense to me.
I'm a drummer and I prefer the feel of having an eighth note click to play along to. I have also tried using a delay but then you have two accent notes, so that isn't a solution either.
