Selection of the time-step for a catchment file is done when creating Meteorological Templates, and when choosing from the list of available meteorological templates to use (when you select New from the File menu)catchment depends on the time step of Meteorological data.
The selection of an appropriate time-step for modelling is a compromise between accuracy and run time/computing power requirements. A smaller time-step will require longer computing time, and this may be an issue, particularly when running on slower machines or using Catchment files with many nodes (for more information on managing computing time requirements, refer to Running and Saving music Simulations).

| Note: Wherever possible, it is recommended that a 6 minute time-step be used, as it will output the most accurate results. |
In MUSIC, the statistics, graphing and export of data can be undertaken at any time-step equal to or larger than the time-step used to run the model. For example, you can report at a daily time-step, even when the model was run at a 6-minute time-step.
