Could be free I guess Posted by: Crysalis are you wanting to remove vocals? If so, forget it if you want anything resembling good quality. If you REALLY want to try it, heres how: The vocals have to be panned direct center for this to work. You take the left channel and the right channel separately at equal levels and invert the phase of the left channel. Then, you reverse the L/R to R/L. This removes anywhere from 0-50% of the vocals and leaves massive amounts of the music missing and sounding terrible. What this does is cancels out the vocals (the ones panned dead center). THAT means that the two soundwaves are complete opposite of each other during a cycle and equal zero, thusly, no sound. Since you are working with left and right separately and only one is inverted, only what is panned center is removed (not only vocals, but whatever the engineer panned dead center. If you dont understand what I just said, dont attempt. Posted by: HAVOC Crysalis has no idea what he's talking about... 003 would have a better idea, PM him. I'd recommend downloading instrumentals & acapellas. Take the two and import them into any wav/mp3 editor and do a bit of beat matching and editing and enjoy your creation....

[/B][/QUOTE] Right. :p Posted by: Crysalis ^ +1 havoc - I despise you. richochet - listen not to havoc's words. He knoweth not of what he speaks. Posted by: HAVOC You obviously don't know what you speak if you +1 switch... He said, "Right" which means he agrees with my quote. Don't listen to crysalis. Just because he's an "Audio Engineer" doesn't mean he has a clue what he's talking about. He's always telling me to buy "Bose" equipment and make sure that I turn my EQ all the way up on my X-FI sound card. He also said that the "Crystalizer in X-FI was teh leet and will pwnzer anything."... I don't know man... If you ask me 003 is the guy to ask...

Posted by: molsen ummm. so you mean something like audacity? where you can put in your own tracks and mix them and loop them and such? Posted by: R1C0CH3T exactly Posted by: molsen yea, audacity. download it. Posted by: forrestcupp Audacity is a great sound editor, but it is total crap for mixing audio tracks. If you want something free, what you need is Reaper. For freeware, it's pretty awesome for mixing audio tracks with busses, effects, and everything. It's current versions are not free, but the pre-v1.0 versions were freeware. You can download v0.999 here: [url]http://www.reaper.fm/download-old-0x.php[/url] With Reaper, you can install VST and DirectX effects plug-ins. Here is a VST effect that is a vocal remover/isolator. [url]http://www.elevayta.net/azuifgeh.htm[/url] It has a $0.90 fee to cover bandwidth, but it may be worth it. You can use this plugin to either remove vocals, or isolate them, which is exactly what you need. To install a VST plugin in Reaper, just extract the .dll file into the Program Files\REAPER\Plugins\FX folder and it will load it into the list of available effects. p.s. For everyone bashing Crysalis, you don't have a clue what you're talking about, evidentally. His suggestion is a well-known technique for isolating vocals. Just keep in mind that no matter how you do it, it is not an exact science, and results may vary from song to song. Posted by: Crysalis lol @ forrest cupp.... they were just joking. They all tease me over on techonvent.net for how much I know. Don't worry about them... especially havoc... I dont think I ever remember him saying something that was actually 100% serious (like when he said he was straight...) ... mista switch on the other hand.....hes full of it. He tries to compete with my audio knowledge with his puny insignificant knowledge of photography. He TRIES, and we all encourage him on ToV, but he just doesn't understand.
