Forgive my simple question… but do you mean… they are playing live but hearing a click track to help them with timing in the live environment? Or…
I enjoy these insights… but we as players who have no frame of reference for stage performances don’t know what is meant to “playing to tracks”. Are they hearing the actual song that is in ear devices?
I have often wondered this… even with some of the more simple programs like “The Voice” where singers have the earpiece.
Is there “different tracks” (say… a simple click track versus a track for tonality while singing or maybe the EXACT STUDIO song) for different players or performers?
I’m coming clean to be honest… that I’ve wondered this so many times… what they hear, how it helps and if it is tricky to get used to the pro’s and con’s of hearing tracks.
Sorry if this is obvious or very rudimentary for the rest of experienced Forum participants.
