If I understand you and the definition of the metronome preset
correctly, it's not the trigger, that uses a sine wave. The sine is
only used to generate the audio signal.

I've been thinking about writing a very simple square wave generator
for the metronome tone. Ok, that would have lots of high frequency
components, but for a metronome sound I don't care. And a square wave
should be *extremely* easy to generate :-)
