About the Metronome

The Metronome is not an effect block. It’s part of the Tempo menu.

To hear the metronome signal, turn up the level. On the Axe-Fx III, FM9 and FM3, the level can be set per output and USB/Digital. The Axe-Fx II and AX8 send the metronome signal through Output 1 only.

You can start and stop the Metronome remotely, by pressing a switch that has been assigned to the Metronome's MIDI CC, or by using the Tempo menu on the hardware.

Tips, tricks and troubleshooting

If the Metronome starts automatically and cannot be stopped, it's probably triggered by a MIDI CC transmitted by your DAW. Disable this in your DAW, or set the Metronome's MIDI CC to NONE in the I/O menu.
