      You can find metronome only tracks on youtube and there are some pages that have just about every bpm you could imagine. Just use VLC to download the videos as it's the more trustworthy than just about every other youtube downloader. from there just drop it into your audition session or video program to lign up your edits. Also if you can't find the specific bpm metronome you need you can always take one and stretch it out to the desired bpm (I am not advertising for any youtube channels or any software)

      In short:

      1. Search YouTube for your specific bpm needed.

      2. Download it with VLC or any other trusted downloader

      3. Stretch the metronome track if needed to match your bpm (if you can't find it online)

      4. Drop into your Audition or Premiere/After Effects timeline to visualize your exact BPM Needed.

      If you are on Mac and have Camtasia, it has a driver/helper which can capture system audio.

      Do you mean as an audio file? Normally all the settings for the Metronome are stored anyway in the .sesx file and therefore will be there when you reload that session.

      Yes, as an audio file. It would awesome to be able to embed the click track in a scratch track for practicing purposes for band members. Is that possible?

      Unfortunately it's only possible to do this if you send the metronome output to a spare output on your sound device (assuming you have one available), connect that back to a spare input, and record it like that. You can't even be devious about it; I tried sending it to a bus and sending that to the master channel, but that doesn't work either - it's trapped out everywhere.
