Logic Pro Metronome First Bar Velocity Not Working. Help!

Hey all,


Such a frustrating bug on the Logic Metronome.


The very first bar click that is usually a higher velocity than the next 3 clicks, is staying the exact same velocity as the rest and no matter what I do with it, it doesnt change.


I'll attach a video link below I recorded on my phone (hopefully can hear ok)

Here: Clicktrack Problem Logic Pro


As You'll notice, the click tone and velocity stays the same constantly, even as I change the Velocity of the Bar.


This is very frustrating as I need to bounce the Click for my Drummer who uses it for live tracks of our songs. He really needs the first bar click to be super noticeable.


Anyone else had this? Or am I missing something, feel like I've tried it all and dont wanna start tempo changing older clicks etc.


Thanks!

Disable "Polyphone Clicks" in the Metronome Settings.

This is interesting. I use to play a lot with click, and I hate an accent on the first beat of a bar, because then the rest is either to quite or the first bar to loud. (I love my ears)... And I also prefer non-tonal clicks because otherwise the click competes with the music.
