Lead vocals, background vocals, acoustic guitar, 2 electric guitars, 2 keyboards which is often but not always a piano on keys 1 and something more textural like a pad or Hammond organ on keys 2, bass guitar, drums and a range of click tracks and vocal cues. In some songs some stems may be silent (i.e. have no backing vocals).<\/p>\n<p>You can mute any instrument stem by clicking on its stem name. It will turn red when muted. Hit it again to unmute it.<\/p>\n<p>Pressing the S button directly underneath the stem name will solo that stem.<\/p>\n<p>You can also boost or cut the level of any instrument stem with its respective slider.<\/p>\n<p>Finally on the very left there\u2019s a pale grey master slider for overall volume control.<\/p>\n<p>Settings are automatically saved per song, so even if you go to another song and come back those mix setting will be ready to go when you\u2019re ready to play.<\/p>\n<h2>Buying the Player<\/h2>\n<p>Buy the Worship Backing Band Transition Mac and PC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worshipbackingband.com\/uk\/transition-multitrack-player.html\">MultiTrack Player from our website<\/a>\u00a0and the iPad Player form the <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/worship-backing-band-for-ipad\/id1279570191?ls=1\">App Store.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At any time hit the mixer button at the top right and you\u2019ll see the stem sliders appear where you can set up your instrument mix.
