i went to a music school in highschool and we did not have in-ear monitors so we just had to practice and practice and practice until we got it right before performing and if something went wrong on stage we would just improvise or pretend it didn't happen
When I was in a coverband, we did rotating three hour sets, all live, no earpieces. Eventually we had 7 hours of material we could play if requested squeezed into those three hours.. 😅
I once heard the click track for a whole show in one particular speaker at Roskilde Festival. I think it was Kanye West. I wasn't at the show, I was at the tent area and thought it was peculiar that the speaker closest to my camp was playing this weird click throughout the songs and it stopped in between songs. I went for a guitar jam walk and the click stopped for a while, I couldn't hear it from another speaker, and I ran back to confirm that it was just for that speaker it played the click track. It was loud ASF. 😅
They once ran Devin Townsend's IEM click track into the stage monitors, I think at Bloodstock. You could hear stuff like "Intro sample, three...two...one..."
I am 110% grateful you are sharing this. Realize it’s a somewhat different niche, but as a film composer something I find really intimidating is that composers/songwriters aren’t always too transparent about their actual process or technical workflow behind the scenes. Trying to figure out “what’s my approach/process” can be kinda scary with nothing as a point of reference, so I absolutely LOVE that you released this.
Because most of us practice until we know the songs off by heart and then the only thing we put in out ears are buds to stop ourselves going deaf. Most Musicians, students, original artists, songwriters and composers don't get someone talking to them like ever...
It's always great to see the behind the scenes of how things get made and how things are done. The end result can look so polished, it's easy to forget it took a lot of stumbling to get to that point. Plus there could be inspiring tricks and tidbits and funny moments hidden just on the other side of the curtain.
@@lozzy1191First, monitors are standard for anyone who is making a living with their music and it's not just a pipe dream still. Hell, my guitar teacher when I was a kid even had a monitor setup for his band that was still only weekend gigging. It's not a measure of musicianship or dedication by a very long shot. It's about being able to communicate to your band and have cues that could be helpful with a complex, long song that you may have tweaked how you're performing recently, and it can also keep you safe if it's cues connected to light cues. I cannot count how many times during tech for musicals that we would see someone try to cross on the wrong cue and worse than not hitting their light, many young (or distracted at any age) actors will walk into someone or something and get hurt. The night someone clipped the skrim on the upstage cyc line with a piece of tall scenery ripped a hole at the pipe pocket, causing another actor to be hit on the head by it as there was no sight line by anyone other than the stage manager in the booth at a point when the ASMs on deck had to be off headset. A former mentor told me about a gig mixing for a well known rock band who had a pyro accident that could've been avoided had he just paid attention to the cue on the monitor. You can tell yourself that you wouldn't need this, but the thing is, it's not just for one person, but the ensemble who are trying to not go full "Carol of the Bells" runaway freight train and remember which of the literally hundreds of possible verses they'd picked. Maybe you just needed to feel better about yourself, but your comment doesn't come off as a working professional but someone struggling who is jealous. I hope this is not an example of the karma you bring to the musicians you preform within. 😕😒
I have a few friends from college that have gone into scoring and I wonder if they dream about watching and finding beats and creating their click tracks to maintain their tempo. I think I'd start dreaming them like I did with the specific metronome I used in college when learning a new piece and trying to decide how I wanted to perform it.
As another musician can you help me understand why nobody's calling it a metronome? I get referring to the clicks cuz not everyone knows what a metronome is, but it could have just said like the clicks is what we call a metronome that keeps us in time. maybe I'm just being really dumb but it feels like an educational video that left out a part of education
@@ldgarius lmao.... That reply right there shows your ignorance. So with that reply you're saying Malinda isn't much of a musician cause she uses a click? She's more successful as a musician and vocalist than you'll probably ever be. Hell based on that idiotic reply, I'm willing to say I'm more successful as a musician than you are. You probably don't even play an instrument or have ever even been on a stage before let alone recorded anything. Smh.
Also as a band kid counting and knowing cues is so important!! As well as knowing the amount of volume to use depending on the acoustics. (Gyms suck to play in)
lol tell me about it! they suck up all the beautiful music and bounce back every possible off tone and misfingering, it’s a real eye opener when you play in a venue meant for music for the first time.
Yhup. Practice with them beats Every single day. I’m going into 7th grade, and I’m starting Jazz and advanced band, hope I’ll survive with the constant ticking in my head all day every day x2.
I’ve sang on stage, I’ve never considered that I could have had something talking to me so I didn’t get lost. 😅 Usually I wear earplugs so I can hear myself.
that’s so interesting! would you mind sharing more of this stuff in the future? i’m in no way connected with the music industry, but bts things are genuinely fascinating to me for some reason
@@Malinda Is there a reason you take one monitor out to hear the audience rather than having an audience mic in the mix? Don't hurt your hearing doing gigs without protection!
Thank you so much for the on-stage trade secrets. Makes perfect sense. You've thought it out beforehand (=thinking & planning) so you _don't_ have to think about it while on stage with a crowd to entertain as well.
I think it’s also important to point out that there are a lot of different approaches to in-ear monitoring. Some artists have just a click, just the cues, both or even pitch tracks. Most musicians that I’ve met just have a mix, and maybe a click. I generally just have the kick, snare, hi-hats, bass guitar and myself (guitar) in my monitors and then the vocal super low just in one ear as my “cue”. Fascinating stuff to see how others use their equipment. Super cool video!
That's so cool! I never considered how hard it can be to remember the lines, my favorite part of drunken sailor has always been that when sung live you rarely hear it the same way twice. People are always coming up with new lines on the spot. But that's always been at renaissance fairs and stuff.
There are also literally hundreds of verses already out there, so no two groups will ever do it in exactly the same way. Granted, that's also kind of a hallmark of the folk genre in general, variation and personalization are part of the definition, so if two groups ever do exactly the same arrangement of any folk song, one of them is doing it wrong.
My vocal teacher was previously an opera singer so she really forced it on her students to memorize everything and that if you do make a mistake, then “hey, it’s just a cover song and it’s your own rendition now, the audience doesn’t know how you’re supposed to sing it, only you, so if you make a mistake, own it and build up off it” and tbh it’s made me feel more confident Plus she fell in love with a jazz man, so now she has skills of operatic and jazz and whenever mistakes are made that sound good, she just says “oooh jazzy! I like it!”
Example of "the audience doesn't know what it's supposed to sound like" from my high school band days. Mom: That sounded amazing. You did so good! Me: The fan blew my music off my stand halfway through the one song so I had to go by memory and what little I could see off someone else's stand.
Honestly, that philosophy works especially well for folk music, since variation and personalization are part of the definition of the genre, I've had a few songs I learned by ear and later found out I had misheard the lyrics (mondegreens) and decided I liked my version better so I kept doing it with the "wrong" lyrics, lol. I've accidentally flipped around verses, or mixed up lyrics between verses, and it honestly is fine, especially if I notice the mistake and can "fix" it by working what I missed back into the song later. No two groups should *ever* do the same folk song in the same way, there should *always* be a personal spin on it.
Gotta love the invention of in-ear monitors!!! This is a wonderful example of how they’re used! ❤ and that classic “WEYHEY” 😂 This is FR the most amount of likes I've gotten. Sad I know but tysm!!!
THank you so much for the cues. They made singing the song so much better for me, especially since I am profoundly deaf. I can hear the beat and the base but not the words!! But I can also lipread!!
Having a met going in your ear the whole show explains so much! It’d be so nice if we were able to do that in other musical performing arts like band, glad you’ve got a way to make what has to already be a very demanding show easier!
Yeah I've tried so many versions of this for playing & singing or making music and every time I have to just give up on music temporarily because it's such a horrible sound for me. I'm amazed anyone can perform with this in their ear!!
@@bucketfriend297 Awww I’m sorry 😢 but PLEASE don’t give up on doing music! Especially if music is something you would really love to do!! You’ll find something that will work for you!! Keep doing what makes you happy tho!! ❤️❤️
Melinda is a total Bad Ass!!! I love what you do, I love the style you sing in, and OMG would I love to sing some duets with you!!! Don’t stop what you’re doing!!!
THANK YOU!!!! I always wanted to know what exactly a singer hears in their ear piece on stage! I set mine to hear the singing on my own note register I'm aiming to sing in (to help me match pitch)... but had no idea what others listen to. The metronome clicks are super helpful! We didn't have one but my being in a high register, in front ... the rest of the choir noticed I bob my left knee! (I was totally unaware I do this or sway at all lol!) The choir started calling me their Metronome! ^_^
This was such a cool insight, and not something I would've ever expected a performer to share outside of the industry. I love these little things that humanize stars, because it gives hope to people just starting out that might be intimidated to chase that dream.
I volunteer in video production at a church and I am typically the computer graphics operator and occasionally video director. Having the clicker that the performers also hear is incredibly helpful with making sure timing is right not just for the people on stage, but for us behind the scenes too! :D
@@vozera723that's a good question! If you listen behind the music, there is a tick, or a "click." It is like a metronome in that it keeps the beat, but if you listen REALLY closely, you can hear the first of each 4 beats as a little louder which different from a metronome. Don't quote me on this, but I am pretty sure it also hints at the time signature or possibly the first beat in a measure in the musical sense. I am more confident it's the former
@@arimckellin1 ahhhhh I figured that was just a tool that they implemented into the digital metronome. My brain kind of compares it to analog versus digital clocks, cuz like with most things not all when you translate format you always get different features added
please make a TH-cam series out of it with all your songs including the click tracks. that's so fascinating and I somehow can't get enough of it. It's somehow funny. I recently did start searching for such videos to learn more about it and get some inspiration.
This is wonderful! I often struggle with trying new things because i think "i could never do that without help." Its really good to know that the pros also need/use help and assistance tools for performing.
We use those at church I play lead guitar so i make the click, the vocals, and the piano the loudest to know where im at Then my ear facing the drums i keep the earbud out so that in case we get off time, i can adjust accordingly Clicks are really helpful though
I would be driven crazy Hearing a voice while Im performing, dancing and trying to hit the notes and sing the lyrics, things like skipping a beat are things u rehears and learn by heart 😮
I played flute when I was younger. Reached grade 8 through AMEB before I ended up stopping. One thing that was a killer during my examinations and practice for them (naturally solo) was timing. Having earpieces to give me timing cues would've been amazing. I have a piece of sheet music from my Grade 4 exam somewhere around where my instructor at the time has done filled in block letters of "!!Andante!!" at the top. Gives me a laugh every time I come across it.
This is impressive that you’re able to perform so well with that sound in your ears! I absolutely hate practicing with a metronome so I never use one, the sound of it makes me wanna scream😭I usually just try to memorize the beats if I’m able to
It's worth saying it depends on the performer who wants a click or not. Many performers simply play and feel the groove, or listen to one another so they don't slow down or speed up. It's traditionally a drummer's job to keep the tempo, and many drummers pride themselves on that fact! But to each their own!
When i was in bands the drummer had the click to keep in time with the pre recorded sequencer bits. They were usually little percussion fills or some keyboard parts. To keep things simple we mixed everything to DAT. The left channel was the click and the right was the audio tracks. Send left to the drummers headset and the right to the mixer. Worked lovely. Not that i gave a shit at the time, I was the guitarist. Did what i wanted and occasionally glanced at the singer to make sure i was playing the right song.
This is really interesting. Thank you for the upload. I presume each musician/band could be different. I think I read somewhere that some artists have their own instruments/mics feeding into their ears as they wouldn't be able to hear them over the music/crowd.
This is fascinating!! I’ve often wondered how performers remember everything (especially in songs with lots of verses or tempo changes).
back in the day they just practised until they remembered. no other option was available
i went to a music school in highschool and we did not have in-ear monitors so we just had to practice and practice and practice until we got it right before performing and if something went wrong on stage we would just improvise or pretend it didn't happen
It's a magical trick called practice
When I was in a coverband, we did rotating three hour sets, all live, no earpieces. Eventually we had 7 hours of material we could play if requested squeezed into those three hours.. 😅
@@brendonwood7595I still prefer it that way tbh
"Skip. Skip a beat" Imagine if you accidently played that through the speakers! 🤣
Or said it into the mic
I’ve run a click into infill speakers before…
I once heard the click track for a whole show in one particular speaker at Roskilde Festival. I think it was Kanye West.

I played flute when I was younger. Reached grade 8 through AMEB before I ended up stopping. One thing that was a killer during my examinations and practice for them (naturally solo) was timing. Having earpieces to give me timing cues would've been amazing.
I have a piece of sheet music from my Grade 4 exam somewhere around where my instructor at the time has done filled in block letters of "!!Andante!!" at the top. Gives me a laugh every time I come across it.
This is impressive that you’re able to perform so well with that sound in your ears! I absolutely hate practicing with a metronome so I never use one, the sound of it makes me wanna scream😭I usually just try to memorize the beats if I’m able to
Cool tech! Thanks for sharing
Incredible.
Damn, this is fascinating!!!!
still not seen it enough , Love you
The conductor has always been so important in orchestra and I have always been so surprised on stage performers do it without them. Now I know.
Cool! Random stuff I didn't know I needed to know for no reason in particular.
And here I am singing 8-minute metal songs by memory alone.
THANK YOU
THANK YOU
THANK YOU-
i’ve only ever played drums to a click but hearing it from a vocal perspective is super cool!
I love the Atlanta City Winery! They have wonderful drag brunches hosted by Wussyvision. I wish I could’ve seen you!
Thanks for the insight.
Cool. And also get to hear another version of the song :D
during practice when we're in between songs and the click for some reason is on its really fun to vibe to it
Ahh this is your Atlanta show! I wanted to go to that one so bad but found out about it too late. I hope you come back down here!
Wow I just luv it.!!
It's worth saying it depends on the performer who wants a click or not. Many performers simply play and feel the groove, or listen to one another so they don't slow down or speed up. It's traditionally a drummer's job to keep the tempo, and many drummers pride themselves on that fact! But to each their own!
When i was in bands the drummer had the click to keep in time with the pre recorded sequencer bits. They were usually little percussion fills or some keyboard parts. To keep things simple we mixed everything to DAT. The left channel was the click and the right was the audio tracks. Send left to the drummers headset and the right to the mixer. Worked lovely. Not that i gave a shit at the time, I was the guitarist. Did what i wanted and occasionally glanced at the singer to make sure i was playing the right song.
That is actually cool as hell. Why is this the first time I've ever seen something like this?
This is really interesting. Thank you for the upload. I presume each musician/band could be different. I think I read somewhere that some artists have their own instruments/mics feeding into their ears as they wouldn't be able to hear them over the music/crowd.
I loved seeing this
