Creating a Backing Track for Live Performance with IEM - Part 1
Prepare live backing tracks in Pro Tools: mute the parts your band plays, then export aligned versions with and without click. Send the click version to in-ear monitors and the other to the audience. This tutorial focusses on making a backing track with and without a metronome for stage performance with an IEM system. Part 2 will apply this with Mainstage to trigger the backing track.
