Make a Chi Running "Metronome" MP3 track

Step 4Stretch it out

Stretch it out
Now that you have the drum loop at the right speed, we'll need a longer track.

So go back to "Control" and choose "Show time in LCD"

This will change the LCD display, but more importantly the top of the window shows the track in terms of time.

Hover over the top-right corner of the blue bubble in the timeline and you'll see a curved arrow. This means you can keep looping the audio track. Drag it out to 10 minutes.

And that's it! You've made a 10 minute track to run with. The track is 10 minutes long because even if you set the track on repeat on your MP3 player there will still be a gap between plays and it can be disconcerting. Every 10 minutes isn't so bad.

Go to share and you can either send your song to iTunes or Export it to Disk if you want to place the file somewhere else.

Finally, I prefer to double the tempo so that I have one footfall on every beat. For this simply change the tempo to 170 and drag out the music to the 10 minute mark again.
