Honestly who gives this a thumbs down, the man is trying to help you, not even asking for a pennie(or cent) in his case. His knowledge and how he explains things is top class, I would to work with you Rob anyday

[toddscotdrumcovers]

This is the best explanation I have ever seen on this topic.

[russellknipe]

Mate, you're a legend. Why other people can't make their explanations as easy as you have done, is beyond me. Thanks for this info and keep up the good work.

This is cool, only thing I do differently is a mic stand and SM57 over my shoulder into the second XLR Jack in the mixer, so when someone turns around, I have ambient sounds and they can talk to me.
I also just get kick drum in my mix from the board because I don’t like gated sounds of snare and Tom, I can get that in my over the shoulder mic. 👍

This is awesome! Makes the whole process of getting started with live click SO much easier

[brianbenedetti]

Love this Rob. So helpful. I just followed your instructions to a T and it all works great. The only difference is I can't find SoundCue anymore, looks like they may be out of business? I used Stage Traxx instead which seems to be doing the job well. If you or anyone else has a better option for a playback app, please let me know. Thanks again!

I've watched a lot of these videos trying to figure out what setup I want to go with as my band starts implementing tracks and this is HANDS DOWN the BEST video! Thank you so much for walking through your gear!!

This was awesome. I've been playing live gigs for over 10 years and am only now thinking about adding backing tracks. I knew nothing about the process and this video answered all my questions.

[CumulusSkies]

Hi Rob. Would you please make a video on backing tracks for those of us who’ve never used them and are completely ignorant on the subject? That would be greatly appreciated.

[howiethedrummer]

Great tutorial! The only piece of advice I think was missing is to always to bring back up cables to just in case one craps out. 👍

[bryllexdrums]

if you have single/mono DI box

you can plug your left(click) direct to your mixer, and your right(backing track) to your DI box.

from DI box use guitar cable(thru) going to your mixer. and thats it!! you have control both of your left and right.

I love this guy! Rob...you rock. You are an incredible wealth of information to the working man and hobbyist drummer. All your videos are a tremendous resource. Thanks man.

[TWMTWM-eblw]

Rob, thanks so much. Great tutorial. I wish everyone would do clear and focused explanations on their channels. Keep it going!

[cbusdrummer]

I am in the process of having in ears made. I have been looking for a simple explanation of how to set up a rig. Thank you thank you thank you for going through EXACTLY what to get and EXACTLY where to put it. This was very helpful. I've saved this video so I can reference it when my ears arrive.

Thanks again, Dan Harper

[sonnoroso]

Thanks for this, brother. Best video I’ve found so far about how to set up a backing track rig.

[maldios]

Thanks so much for making this video! I have been playing for 30 plus years and I now find myself having to run backing tracks. This tutorial is a life saver.

[Ralkaneous]

Appreciate the video! Really gave me exactly the info I was looking for regarding setup and separating the click from the backing track!

[grantmiller]

Thank you for this! Could not find any videos explaining this as good as you!

[SingerOfTruth]

Just recently found your channel while looking for cheap in-ears. You recommended the KZTs. Thy're awesome. Now I'm obsessed with IEMs and want customs. Debating between 64 or UE. Love your content!

Hey Rob, just bought the entire setup minus the IPad that I already own. Altogether I spent about $190 on everything. The only difference is that I bought the Xenyx Q802 usb. Pretty much the same mixer with the added compression and usb options. Very inexpensive setup for great pro application. Thanks for this video. It’s my first time doing any live audio anything lol. Much love✌🏾
