All my gigs are no click - no backing tracks.Hello all! I'm doing a click track survey for uni.
I'd appreciate it if you can let me know your preference(s)!
1. No click.
2. With click. (If so, what subdivision?)
3. What sounds you prefer?
Hard to tell from the video, but the drummer would normally have the click at all times. Monitor/in-ear mixes can be different for every song, and even portions of a song, so if someone starts a song and needs the click, they will also have it when needed. Perhaps they just have the click until the drums comes in, and then they follow the drums.Who would have the Click here (in ears I suppose +/-?
Finally.No click. I am the click.
Don't they just follow you? You are the only one that needs it, yeah?No click. Not good enough...nor is the rest of the band. (Maybe if we took a few months of dedicated rehearsal, just to learn how...none of us have ever done it before. I'm quite certain there's a lot more to it than just sticking the clicks in my ears...they all need to play to the same thing.)
I use a hihat sound sample. 1/4's1. I definitely prefer no click, but
2. if you have to use one, quarter notes for uptempo, eighth notes for slower songs.
3. I like hearing a simple beat in a click with the character of the music I’m playing. I find that high pitched clave type of click really unnerving.
Which is fine but for any songs that have no drum sections.Don't they just follow you? You are the only one that needs it, yeah?
