Pro-Level Backing Tracks & MIDI Files – Letters X, Y & Z Catalog

Browse professional backing tracks and MIDI files for working cover bands, solo acts, and live performers. This index lists all artists starting with X, Y and Z (including ZZ Top, Dwight Yoakam, Trisha Yearwood, Neil Young, Zac Brown Band, Yes, Chris Young, Paul Young, and more). Every track is produced by studio musicians following the original song arrangements—engineered specifically for live performance.

  • No Fadeouts – Customized Endings: Every track features a definite performance ending engineered for live stage work.
  • Built for Live Gigs: Optimized frequency mixes designed to punch through house PA systems.
  • Solos On Their Own Track: Every solo is placed on its own dedicated track — mute it and take the solo yourself, or let the track play it note-for-note.
  • Lead Melody & Embedded Lyrics: Vocal songs include a humanized Vocal melody track — never flat or robotic — with synchronized scrolling karaoke lyrics. Instrumentals carry the original lead instrument played note-for-note: slow the MIDI down to learn it, or print the lead part to get the score.
  • Flexible Harmony Tracks: Separate MIDI backing vocal lines (oohs, aahs, scat) ready to mute, play live, or drive hardware MIDI vocal harmonizers.
  • Original Arrangements: Precise reproductions using authentic studio instrument lines and grooves.

This page is a quick A–Z index of the artists and songs we've produced. The main MIDI-HITS site has many more ways to zero in on the song you need: search by song, artist or genre, or browse Top Movers, the Top 40 and current country radio hits. Search the full MIDI-HITS catalog →
