| It is now easier than ever to create your own | | | | A lot of the best software around has other |
| drum backing track and it no longer costs an arm | | | | instruments included as well. So if you want a little |
| and a leg either. Huge growth in the computer | | | | more of a melodic sound to your track then it is |
| music industry has seen the production of some | | | | simple to add this in. |
| simple, easy to use yet high quality software that | | | | - A lot of the time a simple interface with a |
| produces beats with ease. | | | | keyboard is where you select, say an electric |
| - You do not have to buy huge amounts of kit. | | | | guitar and then hit the keyboard to input the |
| - You do not need a vast musical knowledge. | | | | actual tune you desire. |
| - You do not need to know how to program | | | | What about recording in real time? |
| mega complicated programs. | | | | Actually this is a little more rare with whats out |
| Actually most of the backing track software | | | | on the market right now. But a few do have this |
| around is as simple as click and drag. You can | | | | feature. Most have a moving time line with a click |
| literally choose a drum or instrument and drag it | | | | track or metronome ticking away. You then |
| into a timeline where you want it to sound. | | | | select your instrument and 'tap' it in or 'play' it in |
| How cool is that! | | | | as the track clicks away. A lot of people like this |
| What I really like about a lot of the software is | | | | because sometimes you know where you want |
| the ability to listen back to what you have just | | | | to put it by the way it sounds and not by the |
| created, edit, change, delete or just make a few | | | | way it looks. So they play it back and add it in |
| tweaks here and there. You don't have to | | | | when they hear it. |
| complete the task to then find out that there is a | | | | Genius |
| cymbal crash or piano chord on the wrong beat | | | | Owning a drum backing track piece of software is |
| of bar 16. Believe me this can save you hours of | | | | a fun and sometimes essential bit of kit. Create |
| work and you wont have to pull your hair out | | | | tons of music all personally tailored to you. |
