Click and Guide tracks

Every song in the built-in template has a Cues group with two tracks: Click and Guide.

Your click#

Put your click stem in the song's folder, named so Plan2Live can spot it: Click, Click Track or Metronome (in Spanish or Portuguese, Claqueta, Clic, Clique or Contagem work too). Plan2Live puts it on the song's Click track.

The built-in template doesn't make a click. If a song's folder has no click stem, that song's Click track stays empty. The set still builds. If the band plays to a click, bring a click stem for every song.

Your Guide#

Put the Guide stem in the song's folder, named Guide, Guide Track, Cues or Guide Vocal (or Guía / Guia). Plan2Live puts it on the song's Guide track and reads its spoken cues to name the section markers. See Guide analysis and section markers.

No Guide in a song's folder? Then that song's sections are spaced evenly instead of following a recording.

When names collide#

A file whose whole name is just the role, like CLICK.wav or 12-GUIDE.wav, wins over other files that only mention it. If two files could both be the click, Plan2Live asks you in Review Stem Matches (see How files become tracks).

In your own template#

With a Custom Template, Plan2Live looks for your template's own click and guide tracks and puts your stems there. Its review tells you where each one went.
