Most professional midi backing tracks run about $8-10 a piece. I am with Mac, if you don't have the songs signature hook-line-and-sinker, you are wasting your time. Everyone knows about CDG's and Karaoke now, they are on the cheap as well. So, YOUR backing tracks would need to sound awfully close to the original artist's sound in order to be competitive. The RT's are great, but they only go so far in uniqueness to sound.

I have thought about doing an internet business for Music Backing Tracks for a long time now. The other problem is, you can get 10,000 midi files/backing tracks on E-Bay for about $5.

Maybe if you could program some of the songs for an established online site, like Midi-Hits etc...., you may be able to make a dollar or two that way?????

But, don't let us hold you back. Go for it !!! Might be able to do something about those cheezy backing tracks that ARE out there
