Can click/metronome be configured independently for different cue feeds?

Can click/metronome be configured independently for different cue feeds?

Hi,

I'm attempting to use Ableton with Beat Seeker in a live scenario, and want to have a click running for myself so that I can ascertain whether Ableton is tracking the beat correctly.

In operation, Beat Seeker disables the built-in metronome once it 'takes over', because it is assumed you would not want to hear a click whilst Ableton is tracking a non-locked drummer. However, I'd like to keep a copy of Ableton's metronome running to my in-ears so I can re-sync or abandon the backing tracks entirely if Ableton loses sync. I don't want the drummer to hear that permanent click though.

How can I get a second metronome that stays on permanently for my in-ears, whilst the 'regular' metronome behaves per Beat Seeker's controls (switching off once we've clicked ourselves in)

thanks, Richard
