Click here to listen Jam 13 - a blues in G.

It has a tempo of 120 BPM, and it features a horn section this time. 

I made the track so it has horns but no guitar for 12 bars, and then horns + guitar for another 12 bars, to make it more dynamic sounding. Birgit wanted no guitars for the first 24 bars so that's how it is now. 

For the recording of solos - everyone set their DAW to the right BPM and we mark the BT into "slots". Then have players choose a slot Hit the record button from the beginning and wait til the allotted time slot appears and then go for it.

Then export the solo ONLY no BT. If they do it correctly its easy to just drop the solo into my DAW and it should be in exactly the right position.

Recording Instructions

• REALLY IMPORTANT - Set your BPM in your DAW before importing the BT

1. Download the booking sheet place your name in a vacant slot. 
   Save it and upload the newer version to the box account.
2. Backing track is in the folder "Download Only Backing Track "
3. Download the BT and import into your DAW.
4. Hit the record button from the beginning and wait til your allotted time slot appears and then go for it. This makes it easy to slot your take into the appropriate spot.
5. When you’re done, mute the backing track and export your solo track only and upload back to Box  folder "upload your solo here" with any effects already applied adding your name AND THE Bar location to the filename. Just bear in mind to record from the very beginning of the track even if your solo doesnt start until the middle as this will make it super easy to blend into the final mix.

• A few things to remember: Export your solo only.  NOT THE BACKING TRACK as a WAV file on PC or as an AIFF if you are on a MAC.  There IS significant degradation in the mp3 file format.
