If you’ve followed the Blog for a even a little while you know we are big on using Ableton Live for loops, and not just treating loops as “backing tracks” but interacting with loops and treating them as their own instrument. Well we stumbled across this post a week or so ago from Georgia Based Worship Leader Brandon Divine from The Church at Chapel Hill and we were reminded that churches need to hear what he was talking about.

Using Loops without In-Ears

Even as I write this I am cringing. At the very least 30% of all the questions I get about using loops are “Can I use loops without In-Ears?” Whenever anyone talks about what it takes to use loops they mention the absolute need for in-ears. The problem with this is that there are tons of worship leaders that really want to start using loops but don’t have the budget to buy in-ears. They’ve got a mac and garageband but no In-ears. So can they use loops? Again the safest and easiest answer to the questions is no, you can’t use loops without in-ears but the question needs to be fully answered. Yes you can use loops with out in-ears ( I cringe…) but keep in mind Attempt at your own risk!
