Your Questions Answered About Backing Tracks, Licensing & Production


Welcome to our FAQ page — answers to the questions we’re most often asked about our backing track production services, pricing, editing, licensing, delivery, and more.


Do Your Backing Tracks Include a License for Live Use?


No — backing tracks themselves do not include any performance licence for live use in the UK. If you plan to use a backing track in a live venue, UK law requires the venue to purchase a PRS performance license to cover the public performance of the music. If you plan to distribute or release music commercially, you must secure the appropriate rights and licenses yourself. We can help in most instances with this. 


Having clear licensing information upfront helps you stay compliant and avoid unexpected legal issues when performing or distributing music.


Can You Edit or Modify My Backing Track After Delivery?


Yes — we understand that sometimes changes are needed after you receive your track.

  • The first edit is free (for example, removing an instrument, adjusting vocal levels, or changing the mix).
  • After the first free edit, additional changes are charged at £10 per edit.

It’s important to specify your requirements when placing your order so we can deliver the right version first time.


How Do I Pay for Backing Tracks & Audio Services?


We use a secure online payment system on our website. You’ll be guided through checkout and payment options when you place your order.


How Do You Deliver My Backing Track?


All backing tracks and audio files are delivered electronically directly to your email address — typically as high-quality download links for easy access.


Digital delivery ensures fast turnaround and no loss of audio quality.


Can You Produce Any Track I Want?


In many cases, yes. Most of our backing tracks are created using stem files (individual instrument tracks) that we already have on file or can access through partner studios. This allows us to offer high quality backing tracks at competitive prices:

  • 🎵 £22 per Backing Track (MP3 320 kbps)
  • 🎶 £39 per Backing Track (High-Definition Audio)

However, if a song’s stems are unavailable, we may need to record parts from scratch using session musicians, which typically costs around £300 per track due to the additional production work involved. Please note that due to time and availability of musicians, this service may not always be available. Please ask for details.
