The Legal Stuff

Who wants to read legal jargon? Terms and conditions and terms of use are important because our interaction is over the internet. We cover our obligations to you, yours to us and the nuances of buying over the internet compared to buying over the counter.

Your obligations are simple. We want you to get out there, enjoy performing and make big bucks from gigs. And, we'd like you to come back to Hit Trax and buy more backing tracks. We ask you to seriously respect our copyright and to refrain from giving away, making unauthorized copies of and to never on-sell the backing tracks.

That's it in a nutshell, now here's the legal speak ...

Accuracy of Song Files

Hit Trax programmers reserve the right to allow for up to 15% variance in accuracy of the song files ("The Library"). In sections containing an instrumental solo or lead break, Hit Trax programmers reserve the right to allow for up to 20% variance in accuracy of the notes performed by the original artist in an instrumental solo or lead break. Hit Trax will not refund or exchange a song file from ("The Library") where this condition exists.

Song Tile Versions

Unless otherwise stated, "The Library" are based on the radio versions. Extended, live, custom arrangements etc are noted in the title or song information page that can be accessed by clicking the song title. Exceptions to this norm are the 'MTA' coded titles where the producer often takes liberty and changing the arrangements. 'MTA' titles should not be purchased by performers requiring the original arrangement.

Demonstration Files (demo song files)

Demos of songs are on the website. Demos allow buyers to sample a music before buying. If a demo doesn't exist, won't play, or isn't enough, the buyer should contact Hit Trax through the website's customer service/support section before paying.

Demo files are recorded using MIDI sounds, samples or a mixture of both and saved as a stereo MP3 file. This process is required to ensure demo's play consistently on all devices. The buyer should be aware that demo's can be 'sonically' different to the MIDI file. Hit Trax uses MP3 demo's instead of MIDI demo's as a MIDI file relies on the quality, limitations and sound patches reproduced by the MIDI device playing back the MIDI file. Software players such as winamp, vanbasco and similar software that uses the MIDI capabilities of a simple computer sound chip can never reproduce good quality playback capable from dedicated MIDI File players. It is assumed the buyer of a MIDI File is aware of these circumstances and will apply common sense in making decisions based on the equipment used by the buyer.

A small number of demo files may have a melody guide that is not included in the complete version. This is due to some MIDI files created as ring tones some time ago. Click the song title to reveal assets/inclusions to see if a melody line exists in the entire MIDI File.

Hit Trax states clearly, and The buyer acknowledges as such, that there is never any intention to misrepresent the quality of our backing tracks based on our demo's. Hit Trax demo's are formatted to MP3 to ensure each and every buyer hears the same audio demo, no matter which device the demo is played.

The buyer therefore, acknowledges this condition of sale and accepts that no claim for refund or exchange will be lodged to Hit Trax, or through a payment gate such as PayPal, ANZ e-Gate, visa, Mastercard and American express on the basis that the demo is different from "The Library".

MIDI File/Karaoke MIDI

One of the following definitions will appear under the song title as a buying guide:

"MIDI File” - ‘may’ include a melody guide, does not include embedded lyrics
“MIDI Karaoke” - includes melody guide and embedded lyrics
“MIDI File with Karaoke Lyrics” - includes embedded lyrics and ‘may’ include a melody guide.

MIDI File Formats & Playing MIDI Files on your Device

Hit Trax "The Library" are created and formatted to 'General MIDI' specification format 0 (merged) format 1 (split channels). The playback device must be at least 'General MIDI' level 1 compatible in accordance with general MIDI specifications. Hit Trax MIDI Files will 'load & play' on any General MIDI level 1equipped device, computer and software. Contact customer support if you are unsure.

MP3 Backing Tracks - Recording process and Instrumentation

Mp3 backing tracks are audio songs minus vocals. The Mp3 file is mixed to 2 track stereo. Hit Trax does not support multiple track Mp3 files. Instrumentation is recorded using sampled instruments and/or high quality MIDI sound sources. Select this format to play backing tracks on any mp3 player, IOS/Android device, iTunes, windows media player and similar programs, and any device dedicated to playing a standard audio file.

Live Band Backing Tracks with Backing Vocals

This particular range is recorded using mainly live instruments and include backing vocals. This range is clearly identified under each song title and are only available as mp3 files (mixed to 2 track stereo). This range of mp3 backing tracks is identified by an item code beginning with 'dt'(eg: DT1232) most songs have an arranged ending and some songs end with a 'fade out'. All songs are clearly identified as having an 'arranged ending' or 'fades out'.

The producer of 'live band backing tracks' include the information that this range of backing tracks may have 'backing vocals'. Hit Trax cannot verify the inclusion of backing vocals in this range, therefore these items are sold on the basis that backing vocals may not exits, even where stated as existing. Buyer purchases these items with the knowledge that backing vocals may not be on the particular purchases the buyer makes and agrees to make no claim for exchange or refund. Hit Trax will update the listing where we become aware a song file is listed as having backing vocals and those backing vocals do not exist. Further to this, backing vocals are not included in a song file where the original recording did not have backing vocals in the first instance.

Member Account, Password and Security

If any of the Services requires you to open an account, you must complete the registration process by providing us with current, complete and accurate information as prompted by the applicable registration form. You also will choose a password and a user name. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account.
