IntelligentAl Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Recently, my friend finally switched from acoustic to electric, so we and my friend who plays bass have started jamming. The trouble is, we like to play along with backing tracks but they always have rythm guitar and bass parts still on. Is there anything I can use to remove the guitar and bass parts from audio tracks. I tried searching the net for a program that would allow me to mute channels but I couldn't find anything. Thanks for any help, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Rock Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 A Tascam Guitar Trainer can be useful but I think it's impossible to remove the guitar and bass completely. Or you can play over a beat from a cheap keyboard. Oh! Wait! You have a G-Dec? Don't you have a beat box in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWANG Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I had the tascam guitar trainer, before I got the micro cube. And it would do very odd things.. like take out a part even when I didn't program it to. Or remove a vocal instead of the guitar. Or just not take the guitar out at all. I sent it back. Maybe I just got a dud, but for that money I was happy to just go with the roland. Just a suggestion but.. a cheap drum machine... you have a g dec? .. and make your own tracks.. you can get a 4ch tape deck pretty cheap these days.. and all the tascams do a pretty good job.. I use my zoom 123 drum machine all the time and you can even punch in ques and so forth with the finger pads. *it puts stuff in time for you, so you don't have to be an actual finger drummer* TWANG also.. there's a website I've lot the url to right now.. that offers backing tracks to a lot of songs.. and you can have the guitars off or on in different combinations.. I think they had a few sans bass lines.. and with or without vocals. not a huge selection, but it may help! I'll try to find the url. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntelligentAl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Thanks for the info, guys. I've been looking on the net are there a loads of midi files that I can load onto my G-Dec, so I have the option of turning the volume down on each part, so problem solved. Thanks again!

Dave Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Once you remove the guitar and bass you only have the drums and maybe a keyboard left. You might as well create your own track once you get to that point. Here's a site that has only drums and bass, add your guitar parts as needed. http://www.drum-tracks.com/drumbassindex_intro.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntelligentAl Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Osprey, that Vox thing looks great. Unfortuantely, I just can't afford to spend that kind of money on it. That's why I was hoping for ready made backing tracks. What is it that you want it for? Same reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
