Title: Stripping the vocals out of audio? Post by: Margalis on October 02, 2008, 09:16:50 PM Anyone know if this is possible and how I could accomplish this? I want to take songs and do my best to remove the vocals without touching the rest. The result doesn't have to sound perfect, just passable.

Amazon book search for play-along. They have them for other instruments, but I only have the guitar books.

No idea how that happened, but it took me a while to notice that I was listening to instrumental versions of the songs that were playing.

Post by: Phildo on October 04, 2008, 09:46:24 PM Doing what that link Trippy posted suggests would probably give you weird phasing issues with instruments that are only partially panned. It will strip out your vocals and leave you with some parts of the song that sound weaker than they did before.
You could always try finding a karaoke version of the song, or getting your hands on the original master recording (good luck?). Title: Re: Stripping the vocals out of audio?
