Multitracks

Multitracks PLAYBACK Issue: A subscriber recently had problems with stems not synching correctly in their Playback app. If you have a similar problem, try finding a setting that says something like “Use the Downloaded Click” – this directs the app to use MY click that lines up with MY multitracks, not the built in click from the app.

Multitracks Info:

Your Hymncharts subscription gives you permission to stream tracks and multitracks for online services.

Hymncharts MULTITRACKS come in 2 flavors:

WAV: The largest sized files and the best quality files.

M4A: Modern AAC files nearly as good as WAVs at an even smaller size than MP3s. Only my newer arrangements include M4As.

MP3: Top quality 320kbps MP3s that are practically as good as WAVs at a fraction of the size. (NOTE: I’m no longer creating MP3s for my newer arrangements, so going forward you’ll use the M4As instead.)

APPS: Smaller 120kbps MP3s that work better (because of the smaller size and shorter file names) in smartphone and tablet apps like PRIME and PLAYBACK.

UPDATE 11.06.22: New hymncharts arrangements will no longer offer the APPS option - analytics show APPS downloads were a mere .7% of all track downloads.

I highly recommend LoopCommunity.com for both their multitracks and their easy-to-use PRIME for iPhone, iPad, & Mac. I got it to work the first time I tried it with HymnCharts MULTITRACKS.

LoopCommunity.com also offers their excellent YouTube tutorial videos that will tell you everything you need to know about using multitracks!
