To define the metronome marking for playback

1. Click the Expression tool  . If you haven’t yet placed the marking in the score, double-click any measure. When the palette appears, click the metronome marking, click Edit, then skip to step 4.
2. Double-click the handle. The Expression Selection dialog box appears.
3. Click Create or choose an existing expression and click Edit. The Expression Designer dialog box appears.
4. Click the Playback tab to display the playback options. Choose Type > Tempo. In the Set to Value box, enter the metronome setting. For example, if your tempo is q =60 beats per minute, type 60 in the Set to Value box. (You can change the rhythmic unit by choosing it from the Tempo drop-down list menu; you could, for example, specifyh =60just as easily.)
5. Click OK, OK, Assign.

Note. To easily record, or ‘conduct,’ a unique tempo change for any region, use TempoTap.
