Hi Richard, normally this should not be happening. When you use the audio metranome, are you hitting record at a certain bar, like for instance bar 3, or are you hittting the record during your piece? Sometimes I've noticed that the metranome does not work properly when you hit the record button while the system is on stop. Let me know.

Sometimes I get the strong beat on the third beat of a 4/4 beat measure. Is it normal or not? Regards
