A "Click Track" is a tool used in music production and live performances to keep musicians in sync. It consists of a metronome-like sound, often a series of clicks or beeps, that provides a steady tempo for the performers. This helps ensure that everyone plays together, especially in complex arrangements or when using electronic instruments.
In recording studios, a click track is often added to guide musicians during their sessions. It can be recorded alongside other instruments or used as a reference for editing later. Many digital audio workstations (DAWs) offer built-in click track features to assist artists in maintaining rhythm.
