Click vs No Click - Find the Best Approach For Your Project And Learn The Different Ways To Use A Click Track

There was a time when a click track was simply a tool to sync up different players and get them to play together easily in the right tempo for the song, especially when doing overdubs.

Then there was a time when using a click track was frowned upon and almost seen as "cheating", especially in certain rock genres. 

And then it became the standard, people were expected to be able to play to a click and most modern music was expected to be quantized and to be perfectly on the grid all the time. 

Now, of course, we're seeing a trend of going back to natural feel and not using a click track again. As so many other things, it comes and goes in waves.

Now what does that tell us? 

Well, there doesn't seem to be THE ONE right approach. And in fact, it's not just yes or no. If we choose to use a click track, there are many different ways to use it. 

So what do we do? What's right? What's the best way for our project? And is it cheating? Does music really suffer from using a click track? Can we have both the click track and an organic, natural feel at the same time? How do the pros approach it and why?

Let's discuss!
