so, which metronome gui-app do you use... if any?
kmetronome, when I don't have a HW-one at hand. It's tons of free
non- soundfont wave forms, so don't let that stop you. :-)

Thanks Jostein, but I think there is a misunderstanding here.
KMetronome only sends MIDI events, it doesn't provide wave forms by
itself. It depends on your MIDI synthesizer (that may be
QSynth/FluidSynth, of course).
Thank you for being polite! :-)
This was not a misunderstanding, it was bad memory from my side. And now
I remember that I usually use Qsynth or timidity for this. But I have
tested it with Linuxsampler too.
I haven't used a software metronome for more than half a year, because I
prefer my cheap KORG MA-30 with very low volume when I'm practising. By
using that one, I feel that it's very easy to play to a click track or
anything unfamiliar when recording.
But anyway: KMetronome is my choice when I use a software metronome. It's
so easy to make new patterns and rhythms on it, that it's also a valuable
composition and arranging tool. It's embarrassing that I forgot how
powerful and yet easy to use KMetronome is.
Thanks Pedro!
