I just want to say thank you. This my first approach to playing with clicks and backing tracks. Found myself lost somehow with how to approach it, but your youtube video and this material is of great help. Thank you

Hey! You can actually make any audio track a blank space track in ableton.
Duplicate and existing audio clip you have, and in the loop browser turn the volume of the clip all the way down. Once you turn the volume of the clip all the way down you can click on it and hit “Ctrl + J” (for PC) or “Comm + J” (for Mac) and it will commit the volume and you’ll have a blank space track.
