We have a very limited worship team, two guitars an occasionally a violin and bass guitar. As leader, I use the tactic of playing an intro using the chords of the verse. I start and the others join in.
It’s an absolute must. Without it, musicians just fight to stay together. Getting off time becomes very messy and muddy. Time is the most important thing, and also allows people to be more creative.
We started using them in ’08 and, after the initial break in period for the team, it revolutionized our music. We use Ableton Live through an in-ear system, controlled through a midi footswitch. Works great
