Can a Cubase metronome be recorded as an audio file?

hi

We've just finished recording backing tracks on cubase and I'm hoping to give the recordings to our drummer to practice with. problem is he obviously needs a click to do this and i haven't yet discovered a way of expotring the files as an mp3 which includes the sound of the metronome. any ideas?

cheers

Couple ways I can think of off hand...first, set up metronome as usual...then set your soundcard to record "what it hears" record the metronome to a track in cubase...now it will mix down...

it that doesn't work (I don't think all soundcards can do this easily), then you can manufacture a click track...open a drumsynth in cubase (one of the stock ones is fine)...

Sequence quarter, eights, or sixtenth...record that midi info to an audio track...you can make a 4 bar loop...copy and paste it throughout the song (should take only a few minutes)

The point is, you must convert the click track to audio...I just provided two ways to do it...you may think of another way or a better way using your system to do it...once it's an audio track it mixes just like all your others...hope this gives you some ideas

I think the metronome sound is a regular wav file (or two), but it's probably not directly renderable.
