hello, 
 
i have been composing, recording and mixing for a long time relatively. 
you can check my sounds at my site below. 
 
here is what i do: 
 
1- export the backing track from any sequencer application after mixing it. 
2- record lead guitar in one shot in sound forge for example. 
3- mix both tracks then export. 
 
what i'd like to know if anyone gets better mixes uses different procedures. 
it will be really appreciated if you can share with me.

Hi ,  
 
Why don't you record your guitar line in your sequencer program ?  
 
What's the program you're using for sequencing ?

I use a few different programs for such. my favorite as of this moment tho is Acid studio 6.0. Its a simple and easy to use program. I also like to use Cubase, again a simple and easy program. pretty much how i record lead guitar is by first laying down the basic track for the song, bass and rhythm guitar, mixing both of them with an alesis usb multimix 8. I record 2 tracks for them. so i can mix each one sep and adjust all the levels. Then once ive got those finished i will play it back threw a set of studio speakers while running the guitar back into the mixer and recording a new track for lead, Works rather well. that way i can mix each track and fine tune it. Then just export it as a Stereo wav file.

Like Raffi said, the easiest method is to just record a lead track in the same sequencer you recorded the basic track. You're still able to mix each track separately. Unless your sequencer doesn't allow you to record audio, but reason is the only one I can think of that doesn't.

I've always stuck with recording the lead directly to the sequencer as well
