So I know you are working in a lot of stuff an maybe you did think about what Im going to say, but I just want to mention it. What about a speed control for the backing tracks? so the instructors upload a BT at the original speed of the lesson , and with the speed control we can change the speed of the BT. I find more intersting practicing with a BT than with a metronome but sometimes the BT are to fast, so it would be cool to add this feature, and also the instructors could add only 1 BT instead of 5.

Is it good quality slowed down ? I think its difficult to incorporate such option (though it would be great) and it to work properly in real time streaming online If backing tracks were midi files that would be easily done but than they would sound just bad You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

In which case your guitar playing would sound really bad with it. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Actually I almost worked myself to death trying to get this feature when we built the gmc flash video player. To achieve this you need a flash media server (which is hard to get permission for - I believe they never even answered my request - and extremely expensive). And you need a flash developer from hell. Lowering and increasing speed is easy - but doing it without affecting pitch is hard! I haven't given up yet though - we will just give it some more time. Keep the awesome ideas scoming by the way - they are very appreciated! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
