This video was awesome! Straight to the point, professional, and very well explained. I can’t thank you enough for your heart to help. You’re making a difference, and I’m very grateful for your videos!
Very informative video and thanks for sharing your knowledge. I will only disagree with the statement that click tracks will “remedy” poor musicianship and make the band tighter. If a band is not tight without the click it will only sound like a sloppy band with a click track. It’s important for the band to be as tight without the click track or the overall experience will suffer. What happens if the click track suddenly drops out in the middle of a song due to technical or electrical failure? The band should be able to be just as powerful and effective as if the click was still playing. With that said, click tracks are only enhancements, not band aids on poor musicianship.
How about making this using a windows Laptop with using common DAWs (say Studio One), how to make the cord connections with DI boxes and how to route from channels to the in ears. Where to get and setup say the voice cues with the click track???
Hey folks! Check out my free Ableton Live training. It's hands down the BEST way to run a click and tracks in worship - Click the link to enroll in Lead Worship with Ableton - bit.ly/LWWA-YT
Thx for the video, our church currently uses the setup you explained l click r audio and they setup what they want to hear in their ears on stage and thats all the sound guys have access to use for front of house. This is i guess where you start but surely the way better way is to have all audio tracks sent to the mixer which is not affected by the stage musicians so the FOH and live stream mixers can mix all tracks and use for their needs. So do you use any DAW like Cubase etc or is Ableton live much easier? I presume i would setup cubase or ableton live with 16 tracks and send to the FOH desk and Live stream desk? Thx for your time. Craig.
Is this ideal for 2 singers and just an acoustic guitar? If not what is? My wife and I lead worship at a church but can't get any musicians so I want to do something where we have everything we need musically
Hi Do you have a demo of this in action in one of your church services? I’d like to listen to your in ear mix with this going through one full song please. And is it possible to go back to a verse or chorus if you wanted to change mid set or do you have to stick to what you programmed it earlier ?
Thanks for the info. Super helpful and informative. I have one question. How do you extend a song (play an extra chorus or bridge) spontaneously - if the Spirit leads?
I figured a way to do it is to actually cut up your stems into bits (intro, verse, chorus, bridge) and arrange them in your Session View... Then you map each clip row "play" button to a controller button or your laptop keyboard. So it keeps playing a particular bit until you click for it to play the next one. I dunno if you get the general idea
HELP ! I’m trying to look for the video you show me how to set up my multitrack for worship and it’s just not showing up!!! I need help to set it and do it with my church
What is a simple way I can do this without a tech team? We are a small church and do not currently have a tech team. I have 1 person that does powerpoint until we can find someone who steps in. Is there any set up that I can do from some sort of small rig on the platform?
@Churchfront Excellent job here, congrats! Very helpful content. I have a question I'm hoping you can help me with...When the backing track goes to out the main mix will it be stereo or mono. If your answer is mono is there a way I can get it to be stereo?? Thanks man!
Thank for the encouraging feedback, Eric. The backing tracks will be mono with this configuration. If you want to send the mix out stereo, you will need to use an audio interface with more than two outputs. Check out the video on this page titled "multiple outputs" and it shows what this setup looks like: www.multitracks.com/products/playback/features/
@@Churchfront so one output for click and pair of stereo for the tracks...right? Back in 1998- 2000 my old band back in Puerto Rico we used tracks ...back then was called "playing with sequence" where I used to record the songs to my Roland xp60 keys sequencer ..just synth parts and loops ..then send a click track(via click output) to the drummer and the rest along with my keyboard sound thru stereo output of the keyboard to foh. From there I had control over patterns , mix , play ..stop. Pretty awesome. Back then playing with tracks was not that popular ...at least on Puerto Rico. Then after that I stared to seen ppl using portastudios....like Roland Vs1880....tascam recorders...was a great time in live music. Technology has change a lot and for good.
HI Jake, thanks for making awesome contents. I'm in two Worship Ministries and we are just starting out(Both Youth Strength is under 50 young men and women) , and I am the keyboarist/ worship leader in both of them. I have a PSR S970 Keyboard as my main keyboard for the set, (For the 2nd Worship Ministry/Band, we are also looking to Purchase Yamaha MOXf6/Korg Krome later) now I'm looking to expand into DAW and Pads and making the worship more soothing and better. I am using a HP ab125ax Pavilion Laptop(AMD A10 - 8 GB RAM-1 TB HDD 5200 rpm most probably) and is planning to buy Ableton live 9 (standard/suite not yet decided)for now, and Omnisphere 2(later) for the purpose. Now there are 4 questions actually which I'm confused about. 1. On a Budget which Audio Interface to use to connect my Keyboard with the DAW, or what features in an Audio Interface I should be looking at? 2nd I'm planning to buy something similar to Livid Instruments DS1 to control Ableton Live 9(Because that's way to expensive for me right now), do you have a suggestion for that? 3. Is my Laptop okay for a Live set? What upgrades should I do to it to make it more smooth, Like I've heard that an SSD Drive and Ram Upgrades can make my laptop faster to run the daw. Do you think I need them now? Or what specifically would you suggest? 4. I'm pretty much new to this MIDI world, so How to integrate my Keyboard and the MIDI Controller(SIMILAR TO DS1) with the DAW through the audio interface. Can you help me through it? Thank you so much, as always God bless, Jesus loves you.
Hi mate, I'm playing with bass player and singer me on guitar, I've been trying to separate click and tracks left and right. I have made my tracks mono then load the mono track back into reaper cut the intro click and put it down on track 2 then panning click left and track right, when I render the track I Can see the 2 tracks left and right we are not using in ear monitors as its just the intro click and sometimes need click if the song starts just with guitar till band comes in, we are putting the stereo plug into my android then into 2 separate mono channels using aux send to floor monitors I cant get it playing just in monitor it still comes out front of house, do I need to use 2 di boxes to make this work
may be a silly qs.. but how do i get click and tracks to play in correct ears? everything is coming out of 1 ear. click on track 8 (panned left), track on track 9 (panned right). sending both to AUX1, from there its goes to a headphone mixer, and from there, it goes to everyones personal Behringer PM1 bodypack. (all wired) but everything coming out of one ear on headphones.. HELP :)
Thinking of moving to an established church that want to go to stems. We have used Live quite a bit and I am comfortable for PP, Onsong, etc. the thing that is worrying me is that the church has an existing band that play acoustic unmiced drums and ampd bass as well as guitars etc. previously I have always had the drummer play ekits. Any tips for getting them on my side? They are showing resistance right now!
Hi is it worth while just using the click track with in ears to help with timing for the drummer, if we don't need the backing tracks as we play live band?
I've noticed me and another worship leader started singing really out of tune while using the backing & click track. Is this a common problem? Are we monitoring our own voices too soft, or what is the issue there?
It’s not only a metronome, it gives you cues of where you are in a song and it counts you down to start a song. Basically a good click track goes hand and hand with the backing track, because it tells you where the backing track is at.
Is it possible to have the backing track in both channels (in case you have a track where some instruments are panned L/R) and still have a click track. Thanks.
What if we want to have 5 differents click tracks in cubase (cause not everybody needs the click always, but only when the drums stops) and send one click track to every in ear monitor for each musician?
just launched our product the backtrack box, which is a simple all-in rig for running backing tracks. Have some tutorials and example videos on our channel, czech it out!
Hi, Jake. If you don't mind. Do you have a video on motivating or even provoking older generation and seems prophetically know everything from "god" but actually with wrong things on music technology? I know you will need quite a few Words of GOD, but sure we need to help my generation lol. I have been working for the main musical distributor here in Indonesia since early 1990, but I am not a "priest" for those kind of people to hear / listen to ( I am the one to listen to them (",) ). Or, should I move away from my ministrial group I join since nearly 30 years ago? Hahaha. Btw, I am still learning to share your videos with embeded translation CC into Indonesia - can you put the hint in every video of yours? So, we could later change Indonesian with some other local languages available on youtube. Thanks, Jake and GOD bless you with your musical ministry bringing more souls experiencing Jesus The Christ turning stages into altars for YAH Elohim.
Hey, quick question, for the option of having the click device on stage, do the XLR cables have to run to the snake or can they run straight to the sound board at the back?
From playback device to left and right to the mixer. Can I use a Audio Interface, with L and R output to send the sound, to left and right, then into the mixer? :)
We don't have a drummer & our church is very small.. Are the clicking tracks absolutely necessary given our scenario? Only lead keyboard would be used with multitrack.
Neither playback or prime (loop community) have developed apps for Android. : ( you may want to look into using Ableton Live on a laptop. But then again at that price point you could just buy a used iPad to run one of these apps.
Hey Jake...great videos. Just dropped $100 on intro version to Ableton, and it won’t let me add the stems we purchased. What do I do now? I’ve been told intro was all I needed. Now this happens. Please help brother
After 4-years you probably found a solution :). I had the same challenge and "my" solution was to daisy chain the speakers in setting up for small venue. At that point none of the click/cue were audible in the speakers but were audible in my IEMs. In my case, two 8 ohm speakers daisy chained = 4 ohms. Thankfully, my powered mixer can handle that load; make sure your mixer can the load or damage can result. Blessings:)
Hey Jake, I need some help. Here's my setup. I have a laptop running tracks where clicks and guides are panned all the way to left and tracks to the right. I am using a split cable and I am sure it is not defective. I have no problem sending the tracks to the FOH BUT on my headphones, I don't hear the clicks and guides unless I turn up the FX knob. But I don't want to do that because it is not supposed to be sent to the FOH. Any thoughts about my problem?
Not sure if you have figured this out but I might have an idea. I'd suggest not to pan the click track and loops within your daw, but rather to pan it on the mixer. So connect the split cable to your audio device and then onto two spare channels on your mixer. From there, pan the click hard left and the loops hard right (you can change it if you want). Then keep the fader for the click all the way down so it doesn't come through FOH and send it to your monitor (make sure it is pre-fader or you wont get any volume in the monitors). Then send the loops to the monitors as well.
It would be a great thing if your band mates are just tiny bit more responsible and really care about it. Theres no way you can get there if they dont show any interest and bomber you with excuses ..even if trying.
I could not disagree more. It stifles creativity. Talent and creativity should come from the unique gifting that God has given each of us. Click tracks are just worship karaoke. Spiritual milli vanilli. It’s for people who have no idea how to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. It’s for groups who just wanna sound like the version on the radio instead of producing authentic worship from a heart after God. Sorry to be so blunt but that’s just the way I see it. The reason so many people have stopped going to church is because millennials turned church into a show, a production.
Is click-track fit for the purpose in corporate Church worship? Click-track, while being able to operate in perfect tempo and synchronize lights etc, it yet remains static, unbending and in-organic to expression unlike the Holy Spirit. It can also become an excuse to exclude any number of skilled and sincere musicians who desire to be involved in the process of Holy Spirit lead worship. Being replaced by a machine, can the Holy Spirit be pre-set through use of technology? Is it more important to keep in step with a machine or the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit cannot, should not and will not be pre-set. Technology can improve performance, but can it lead worship? The key word is performance. Is worship about, performance or the lead of the Holy Spirit? Surely only the Holy Spirit can enable people to lead worship. Worship is not a performance. It is giving thanks and praise to our Lord God by following the lead of the Holy Spirit. Can music be felt when using click-track? Technology can, however, be a useful tool with the right motivation. Say for instance, when used during practice sessions or learning a new song. However, surely songs need to be open spontaneity. For example, just because a song is rehearsed at 145bpm or 74bpm, doesn’t mean it will work best at that tempo when used with the congregation. Maybe during practice night, a song is rehearsed to start big with an electric guitar intro, but come Sunday, it seems right to start with just the acoustic guitar and vocals. What if, halfway through the song, the leader feels they should slow it down? What happens to the click-track then? Therefore, shouldn’t control of a song be left to the Holy Spirit? Should we highly value the Holy Sprit’s spontaneity in worship? Those un-rehearsed moments when anything can and will happen. Spontaneous, cannot have a pre-set tempo. Therefore, while click-track may be appropriate for musicians focused on singing worldly songs, or for practice, has it any value in anticipating Holy Spirit spontaneous, moments of exuberant praise or intimate worship? Does using click-track immediately tell us worship is focused more on the songs? Does it focus on the song and neglect anything that the Holy Spirit might potentially want to express during and between songs? Should songs always be played and sung how they are written, or should the Holy Spirit be ‘given licence’ to re-arrange them in meeting the needs of the moment? Can technology become an ‘end in itself’, a way to ‘keep up’ with society, and exclude the Holy Spirit? Can worship become just a human expression? Is being ‘boxed-in’ probably the best way to describe worshiping to an electronic metronome? Ultimately, should worship be about expression through the Holy Spirit, or a machine's accuracy? Should we be against technological advances? Or should we evaluate our motivation for click-track? Is it fit for the purpose in Church corporate? worship?

Hi
Do you have a demo of this in action in one of your church services?
I’d like to listen to your in ear mix with this going through one full song please.
And is it possible to go back to a verse or chorus if you wanted to change mid set or do you have to stick to what you programmed it earlier ?
I’d love a demo too

Depends if your church is using in ear monitors. If they are then sure use a click track; It helps the band stay at a consistent tempo per song.

Will this work if im in a satanic worship band?
Jake didn’t qualify what kind of worship, so his advice will apply equally well.
True revival Never! Happens anywhere you have to stay with a click or backing track.

Is click-track fit for the purpose in corporate Church worship?
Click-track, while being able to operate in perfect tempo and synchronize lights etc, it yet remains static, unbending and in-organic to expression unlike the Holy Spirit. It can also become an excuse to exclude any number of skilled and sincere musicians who desire to be involved in the process of Holy Spirit lead worship. Being replaced by a machine, can the Holy Spirit be pre-set through use of technology? Is it more important to keep in step with a machine or the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit cannot, should not and will not be pre-set.
Technology can improve performance, but can it lead worship? The key word is performance. Is worship about, performance or the lead of the Holy Spirit? Surely only the Holy Spirit can enable people to lead worship. Worship is not a performance. It is giving thanks and praise to our Lord God by following the lead of the Holy Spirit. Can music be felt when using click-track?
Technology can, however, be a useful tool with the right motivation. Say for instance, when used during practice sessions or learning a new song. However, surely songs need to be open spontaneity. For example, just because a song is rehearsed at 145bpm or 74bpm, doesn’t mean it will work best at that tempo when used with the congregation. Maybe during practice night, a song is rehearsed to start big with an electric guitar intro, but come Sunday, it seems right to start with just the acoustic guitar and vocals. What if, halfway through the song, the leader feels they should slow it down? What happens to the click-track then? Therefore, shouldn’t control of a song be left to the Holy Spirit?
Should we highly value the Holy Sprit’s spontaneity in worship? Those
un-rehearsed moments when anything can and will happen. Spontaneous,
cannot have a pre-set tempo. Therefore, while click-track may be
appropriate for musicians focused on singing worldly songs, or for
practice, has it any value in anticipating Holy Spirit spontaneous,
moments of exuberant praise or intimate worship?
Does using click-track immediately tell us worship is focused more on the
songs? Does it focus on the song and neglect anything that the Holy Spirit
might potentially want to express during and between songs? Should
songs always be played and sung how they are written, or should the
Holy Spirit be ‘given licence’ to re-arrange them in meeting the needs of
the moment?
Can technology become an ‘end in itself’, a way to ‘keep up’ with society, and exclude the Holy Spirit? Can worship become just a human expression? Is being ‘boxed-in’ probably the best way to describe worshiping to an electronic metronome? Ultimately, should worship be about expression through the Holy Spirit, or a machine's accuracy?
Should we be against technological advances? Or should we evaluate our
motivation for click-track? Is it fit for the purpose in Church corporate?
worship?
No offense, but skilled musicians don’t need any clicks…….
But in many Churches where there are all sorts of beginner, amateur and pros. Click track actually helps them to stay coordinated and stay in tune.
Blah blah blah for almost half a video🤦🏻♂️
