Pro tip: If youвЂ™ve got Guitar Pro files of your songs you can actually export the MIDI data from GP and import it into your DAW to automatically create a tempo and time signature map for you.Дў) Once all the mapping has been done your DAWвЂ™s metronome should line up perfectly, but we need to extract that metronome into an actual audio file. We recommend making one project file per song rather than a single project of the entire set, it makes it far easier to change things up when youвЂ™re sick of the old set. Reaper wonвЂ™t cost you a dime and is fully capable of this.ДЎ) Map out the tempos, time signatures, and song structure for each individual song. вЂ“ Output Cable (see details under вЂњ Setting It All Up вЂќ)Д¬reating a click track requires mapping out your songs in some form of Digital Audio Workstation. вЂ“ в…›вЂ™вЂ™ Stereo to 2x ВјвЂ™вЂ™ Mono Splitter Cable вЂ“ Playback Device (MP3 player, phone, laptop) The shortlist of requirements is as follows: Two mono signals mean we only need a mixer that provides two inputs and two outputs so we can control their volume and routing independently. Sum your backing tracks to mono for now.ДЄll that being said, this means we only need two signals, both of which can be mono. Stereo is great for headphones and larger venues where more of the crowd will notice, but otherwise, youвЂ™re just wasting time. If youвЂ™re reading this article you are not playing venues where the stereo spread is large enough to truly matter, in smaller venues any sort of stereo or spatial effects will be lost to the vast majority of the crowd because where you stand in the venue makes all the difference. Secondly, you donвЂ™t need a stereo setup for your backing tracks. While there are often parts where a guitar starts the song, or thereвЂ™s a soft acoustic break, all you need is for the drummer to simply keep time with a subtle tapping on the hi-hat to ensure the entire band is on the same page. The drummer is the timekeeper of the entire band, and while some of you may have the type of drummer thatвЂ™s more of a вЂњpassive contributorвЂќ to keeping time, it doesnвЂ™t change the fact that heвЂ™s the only one who truly NEEDS to hear the click 99% of the time. WeвЂ™ll show you how.ДЇirst thingвЂ™s first: not everyone needs to hear the click track. In fact, you can have a simple, effective click and backing track setup for less than $50. When done well, it can set you apart from other bands both technically and from the perspective of crafting an entire live вЂњexperience.вЂќД«ut how easy is it to do? When you see all the big bands do it you have to ask yourselfвЂ¦ Do you really need to buy 5 sets of in-ear monitors? Does it require a 16-channel rackmount mixer with WiFi that makes Pop Tarts? No, definitely not!

If thereвЂ™s one hallmark of local metal or prog bands across the country, itвЂ™s running a click track.ДЄs cliche as it is to hear вЂњyo, can you turn our bass drops up?вЂќ at a show, thereвЂ™s certainly no arguing that a well-coordinated, in-time live show with the added sonic color and punch of backing tracks is a luxury that audiences didnвЂ™t have up until recently.
