Do I have to supply sheet music for my tracks? |
| This is the easiest option so please do so if you can. You can either upload your sheet music as part of your order form (pdf, jpg, gif & zip files accepted) or complete your order then email/post your sheet music. However, if you do not have sheet music, there is an option when you order to ask onlineMD to source music on your behalf for a small charge. |
|
Do I have to order & pay online? |
| No, but it is the easiest way! However, if you would prefer to contact us directly with your order, please do so. We can send tracks direct to your email and invoice you securely via PayPal. |
|
Is my track fully legal and licensed? |
|
All tracks supplied by onlineMD are licensed by PRS which means that they can be used for private rehearsal or audition accompaniment. If you wish to perform publicly with any of our tracks, we advise you to contact PRS directly for further advice and ask that you credit onlineMD in any programme or publicity material. |
|
Why can't I order Bespoke Backing Tracks online? |
| Fully orchestrated Backing Tracks are a very individual service. We like to chat to you about your requirements (cuts, instrumental arrangements etc.) before proceeding with your order so please contact us to discuss what you need. We can then give you an accurate quote and timescale. |
|
Do you provide any other services? |
|
As well as recording tracks, we undertake Sheet Music Transposition & Piano/Vocal Transcription. See our Price List for details. If you have any other musical requirement not listed on our site, please contact us and we will do our best to help. |
|
What are your working hours? |
| Technically, our working hours are Monday to Saturday 10am-6pm. However, due to the crazy nature of this business and the last-minute nature of some auditions, you may need to contact us outside office hours. Please feel free to call us any time if you have an urgent request and we will do our very best to help. |
