I've been planning to do this collab for a long time and here it is now!
 First a few introduction words: All instructors are invited and would do me a great honor to have you all on this collaboration to show your own music style and skills. Giving in respect that we have many great musicians that are teachers here at GMC it was a hard decision on what to put as backings. I have give it a lot of thought and it turned out to be trickier than seemed at first. The problem is to find a delicate balance between a universal backing track for everyone to be equal in a way and different arrangements for electric and acoustic guitars, voices, bass. In the end it all came down to 4 different backing track that instructors can choose from. Bare in mind several things before you start. I'm sure most of us know these things but just for the record: - The progression is a simple one intentionally to leave space for improvisation and players diversity - Cmajor key - VI V IV III an the tempo is 130bpm for all tracks. - Backings are all loop-able, but you can make an intro to your solo guitar/bass/voice parts or anything that you may find interesting and consider being in your style of making music. You can notify me about your change and I will mix it up later properly. - I will not change or EQ your recordings in any way so please do the mixing part yourself. I will only intervene with levels when doing final mix in order to preserve your original tone. - The parts should be labeled as the next example: COLLAB_YOURNAME_WITH/WITHOUT BACKING - If possible, upload a wave version of your soloed recording mono or stereo if you use stereo effects or double tracks. - The 4 backings are final. There will be no changes on them. I could add one more, max 2 backings in some different style with a same progression if a number of at least 4 people ask for them. Have fun!

Great job, I just downloaded the backings but so far I am also still undecided about which one I will use ;-) And as Kris already asked, please give us a deadline, I will also be rather busy with Blind Guardian during the next weeks but I definitely want to do my part in this :-)

Ahh,I have main troubles to download backing.
 I'm using Safari atm cause Mozilla is down and all I'm getting with clicking on link is another window with QT player playing the backing... Any ideas? There's probably easy solution but I'm new with Safari.

Did you try to right click on the files and chose "save target as" or whatever this option is called? Like this the file should be saved on your hard disc and quicktime should not appear. About Safari, I also installed it shortly ago, but I never really used it so far, so I can't really give you any advice about this one, as far as I know though it also has a download manager, so it should also work somehow. If my connection woud be faster I would just send you the files, but unfortunately I am "crawling" through the net with about 6 kb/s in the moment...
