Save this folder to where you will not move or delete such as ~/Home/Music/ or Digital Performer (DP) Clippings cannot function.

1		Create a new Digital Performer Clipping Window Project → Clippings → New Digital Performer Clipping Window This is a global Clipping which can be accessed from any DP projects
2		Name the Clipping Window “Click” The window pops up but can be hard to see Warning: If you missed this opportunity to name the window, the default “untitled” will be committed and it becomes hard to rename.
3		Drag and drop the downloaded Click file to the Clipping window
4		Next time when you need this window open, it shows up at Project → Clippings →
5		Add a mono audio track Name the track “Click Track” Set the Grid constraint to your needs, i.e. Quater Note value Drag and Drop the Clipping to the track Repeat to fill a measure (You can Option + Drag the fist one to copy the rest of the beats as well) Now you have a measure filled clicks
6		You can highlight the measure and repeat (⌘+R) the measure, or starting from DP10.1, you can utilize the Clip feature which I explain. Highlight the measure you wish to make it a Clip Region → Pack Into Clips (Control + Shift + 1) or adding Option key gives more options as shown in the screenshot.
7		Once a Region became a Clip, Place the mouse pointer at the edge until the arrow turns into an arrowed circle as shown in the screenshot. Drag to extend until the end of the song
