Shows/Musicals

We can make your show/musical run more smoothly by creating a CD in running order of backing tracks, sound effects and scene-change 'filler' music for playing over your sound/PA system.

• Backing tracks can be recorded from your own music or created from MIDI files available on the internet.
• If you use MIDI files, they can be adjusted in pitch, speed and instrumentation to suit your singers before converting to audio.
• Your singers can also be pre-recorded with these backing tracks to reinforce them on the night, reducing the number of microphones required & problems with stage nerves; ideal for school shows.
