You can also load your own backing tracks, either from iTunes or straight from files, and enjoy NetTrack’s musician’s backing track audio player.

Fixing Backing Tracks

Backing tracks are so much fun, but that fun turns sour when too much time is spent –

  • Shopping
  • Loading to mobile devices
  • Noting down the arrangement details
  • Organising tracks into setlists

NetTracks brings all of this together in one app where you quickly download and manage backing tracks.  Arrangements are always visible, and the app has a marvellous play-along audio player.  Less hassle; more time just playing along.

Why Rhythm Backing Tracks?

As musicians, we like playing along to great songs.  Some do this with the original artists’ recordings; Others use backing tracks with rhythm, baselines and chords.  If you play a chordal instrument, like a guitar or a piano, you might like to use a rhythm-only backing track that has been arranged for the song.   It’s fun; it helps keep in the groove and stick to the song’s form.  Loved by beginning and experienced improvisers alike.

Some App features

  1. Arrangements are always visible – You will always know the length of any introduction and outtro sections and the number of repeats of the form.
  2. Rhythms are always described – They include the tempo as beats-per-minute (BPM).
  3. Setlist’s Musician Player – With per-track configuration for volume, fade-endings, and start-ups.
  4. Apple platform support – iPhone, iPad, Mac, and soon Apple TV will be supported, all with one single, low-cost universal subscription.
