Are you sending the backing to a mixer? In recording multiple guitar tracks, I always send the backing track to another device (amplifier via CD input) where I can listen via headphones, and record direct to the mic/line in ports from my effects board, using the amp as a monitor. That always separtes the backing from the recorded track. If I send the backing track to my effects board and record from it, I get the backing recording as well.
