Hello!

I want to configure a set to have a secondary Cue mix, so that I don't have to alter my precious fader positions in order to hear a different balance just on overdubs.

I can set up a send to direct audio to a separate return channel with a destination other than Main Out -- but how can I get the metronome in the return?

It appears as if the click can only have Main Out as a destination, and if that's true it's something that I for one would wish for better flexibility with.

Has anyone successfully configured such a routing?

Update:

It is possible -- although not the way i would have imagined, nor by the most desirable means. But, in the end, i have what i needed: I can adjust levels in cans without touching Main Mix fader positions and i can hear the click counting in as well.

While I would be happy to detail the solution, the successful configuration is so tied to my individual hardware environment that I'm afraid it wouldn't really help anyone whose system isn't set up exactly like mine. So, I'm not being stingy -- I'm just not sure how much sharing the answer would help in this particular case.

I also use Digital Performer, which is more flexible in the way a cue mix (and as it relates to the click) can be managed,

The whole situation has prompted a metronome wish-list item ask, and I will post that separately now.

Thanks to everyone who read and considered!
