Route the Click to Your Ears Only for Live Performance - Ableton Live

[@GourlieRecords]

I have been searching deep to find an answer to my problem and this video was the solution. Thanks for the tips! 🙌

[@smowmusic3190]

OMG!! BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS FOR YEARS ALREADY. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@plsplsme9237]

OMG, so helpful! a million Ableton tutorials + everyone seems to skip over this essential step.

[@readyfortomorrowmyanmar]

Now I can split the main out and headphones. Love you so much

[@pablovillegasabc]

Amazing!! because of your video i buy the focusrite and now i am working on it with the click. You are the best!!! thank you so so much!!

[@phillineyvonne]

.... I've been trying to procrastinate on figuring that out for 10 years.. THANK YOU!! God send

[@bastiaanstam9713]

really good solution, best way to play live with click and backing track!

Thanks Mari! I routed things a bit differently but this is still very helpful.

you a beast with it! and this is 3 years old!

[@bertilg1]

What a great explanation! I believe some other artist try not to explain everything in order to get them 'aboard' (which is ok) but this is very helpful, very generous! Thanks!

[@agustinsoux]

I managed to get the same results with a scarlett 2i2 interface plus Asio4All and by using my laptop stereo headphone output as the second stereo output (3 & 4). Your video helped me to get there. So, thank you! 😊

[@hanseldominguez5150]

Hi! Could you explain how? Pls

[@stefanleithner6922]

that "3, 4" 4:52 was the most ellie (from last of us) vibe if ever experienced :o thanks for that!

for live shows, is it possible to do this with a mixer like allen and heath instead of using a focusrite 6i6

[@cynthialissette5]

This was so helpful, thank you so much!

[@jlguerramusic]

I also have a focusrite 6i6 and after 3 videos trying and failing I found this one and I have to say it was amazingly helpful! Thanks so much for sharing Mari!

[@willynillybebop]

Does anyone know if it's possible to do this second option with a MOTU M4? The ability to change the output routing without creating the return tracks within Ableton?

[@sangramsinghmalik]

You are life saver!!!!! Bless you.

[@squigsmusic]

You probably get this a great deal, but...i love you. Thanks so much for helping me fix my issue! To the Twitch I go!

[@83southpaw]

Thank you so much!! This was perfect!😊

[@braddasseymusic]

Do you collab with other artists? I'd love to collab.

[@rickhood]

Thanks for the lesson! I subscribed. Too bad there is no way to route the click to only the headphone jack on the Scarlett. I have a Scarlett Solo which has L/R (1/2) outputs on the back only (same as 2i2), and one headphone jack on the front. So have to upgrade to 4i4 or larger to get more outputs on back. But since the headphone jack is an out, it's just too bad you can't route the click to go only there. Oh well.

[@MrJimWilde]

Well, you actually can! This video is unfortunately misleading. Watch this one instead: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6WWdpuMa82nicUfeature=shared I was looking for ways to do that for my live performance with drummer and it worked with Scarlett 2i2.

[@OldChannelAdrian]

This solved everything, thank you soooooo much

[@kelleia9994]

You freaking rock this is very helpful

[@collinclauson496]

THANK YOU! You are brilliant

[@tugradurak]

Thank you for the video, it's very informative, but I might need your help! :) I watched it to hear the metronome separately. I tried with both Focusrite Control and Return Track, but I couldn't solve it with either. When I added the return tracks and did all "audio to sends only' for all tracks and "master cue out to 3/4(same headphone input with video), it gave all the sound to both speakers and the headphones with no filter. Return track knobs are not active for some reason. The volume color turned blue, etc. Everything looks good. What am I missing?

[@BasilBabychan]

Lovely stuff MariGo. Thanks 👍👍

[@everymanyoga2861]

Thanks so much! Super necessary and your live setup looks a lot like mine, so it was really helpful. 👍

[@njainjain875]

that was amazing !!!

[@zachj4042]

What are y’all putting the other side of the 1/4 inch into ? I hope that’s not a dumb question, I’m just curious on what you all did. I ran it from the focusrite output 3 into a channel on my mixer but I wasn’t getting the click in my in ears. It was only when I turned up the knob of my in ears aux on the channel I put the in ear chord in where I got it to work!

[@rickhood]

I ended up getting a Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 to replace my Solo. In the Focusrite Control app, when I added playback 3/4 to the 3/4 line outputs, it also added it to the 1/2 outputs -- I could not seem to add it to just one. What I had to do is have 1/2 and 3/4 playback going to both 1/2 and 3/4 outputs, but then selecting the appropriate mute button on each (mute 3/4 playback for 1/2 output, mute 1/2 playback for 3/4 output). Not sure if there was another way or not but it seems fine -- perhaps that is how you are supposed to do it.

[@danielecongiu6238]

Hi thanx for your video! Unfortunately I' ve Hi! Thank you for your videos. I' m continuing to struggling with a simple situation, but I don' t know where I get wrong. I use audient id24 as audio interface and I only want to use the ableton's metronome to listen the click only in the outputs 3-4 for a live performance. I follow all the instruction about routing the outputs and setting the audio interface's preferences. I can see from ableton and from the audient's software that the click (cue) is working only on the outputs 3-4, but I don't know why I continue to hear the click also from output 1-2. Can you help me about this? How can I fix it?

[@enmalobo4423]

Thank You! You saved my life!

[@Nalacostello]

Hey as i'm moving through my tracks in my live set, the click track doesn't adjust to the different tempos of the tracks. i have put the tempos in the right hand side master bar, but it keeps playing the tempo of the top left tempo and i am having to manually type in the tempo in top right tempo to make the click be at the right tempo. Any advice is much appreciated x

[@theintergenerationalco.3680]

I have routed my mix like you said but metronome is still coming out from my speakers that are on Outputs 1 and 2... My headphones are on output 4... Could you help me please. Thanks in advance!

Thank you this is what I’ve been looking for, but I’m using logic and I’m an amateur with any daw. I have questions, what do I need if i want to play backing track with click and cues and sending the backing track to FOH, and also sending the track with click to my drummer. I’m using logic pro to play the backing track and also made a click track. I only have my laptop and audio interface with 2 inputs and outputs. I hope you can answer my questions, I’ve been looking for the last 6 months and I got no one can show me how 😓😓😓 Thank you, keep sharing 🙏🙏🙏

[@marigo5714]

If you are looking for different audio to go to your ears, your drummers ears, and front of house, you would need 3 different output pairs. I don't think this can be done with just 2 outputs!

[@ethnogardenstrade5904]

@@marigo5714 thank you for the answer, can you show me how to set the audio output on logic pro x ? Send the output to 3 outputs audio interface

[@wilkopiano]

@@marigo5714 also i didn’t get the headphone two headphone sockets you mentioned. I have a scarlett 18i20 surely you are plugging headphones into physical outputs 3 and 4 at the back of the interface not the front. Even the top line scarlett 18i20 only has headphone sockets. I fail to understand the need. Surely taking balanced jacks out of output sockets 3 and 4 at the back of the interface to a headphone mixer is the way to go.

[@levikerteszdrums]

Has anyone sorted out how to route sends (for verbs, delays etc) into those other return channels? If I send audio to A and B for verb and delay, I cant select sends only on those returns. I can only hear them if they get sent to the master. Basically I want to have control over where my affected audio goes instead of sending all my fx busses right to the master. Maybe I'm missing something (I've only been on Ableton for like a week) but I can't seem to figure it out

[@levikerteszdrums]

20 minutes later I tried right clicking for the first time..... SO yeah, that's how. Anyone reading this, right click on the send you want to enable on your return track and select "Enable Send"

[@arale182]

Hi there, is that possible to hear click in headphones only and hear the rest of the music in speaker without using the audio interface? i plug the headphone in my mac and use the speaker built in mac as well

[@marigo5714]

Not that I know of, but I could just not be aware of this. On a mac I believe the speakers and headphone jack are the same output. Perhaps you could try using something like Loopback to do some internal routing??

[@charliethomas844]

Hey, so I am using an Audient id44. I set the master to outputs 1/2 and metronome click to 3/4, but can still hear the click via the main master and speakers, can you help me on this? Or anyone else for that matter?:)

[@rickhood]

I think she is doing this with the sends. Her 3 tracks in the left all go to Send C and Send D, but then Send C only goes out to 3/4 (where the click goes to) and Send D goes out to Master (1/2) which has no click. So 3/4 is getting all 3 tracks plus the click, but 1/2 is only getting the 3 tracks.

unfortunately you need to have more than one pair of outputs. The 2i2 only has one pair, 1-2.

Excuse me, but you are misleading people to buy audio interface with many outputs. There is a workaround and you can actually send the click to your headphone even with scarlet 2i2.
