    In need of help. Please look.

    Ok so the other day a idea popped into my head watching Viva La Bam. When they were playing the "memory" scene of the hummer. i realised how beautiful the song was and I instantly wanted to remix it.

    Well I found the song, it is One Time by enya. The problem i have is cutting out the vocals. I am no good at EQ. that is where you guys at FFR come in. I know some of you are amazing with stuff like this and i need your help.

    I will send you the song through AIM or whatever if you do not have it.

    Catch me on aim at SofaKing Hawking.

    Please if you read this, do not post a...learn yourself or anythign like that.

    I will be posting the song as soon as i am done with it.

    Thanks.

    Can I remove the vocals from a recording to make a Karaoke track?

    This is possible only for certain stereo tracks. When the vocals are exactly the same on both stereo channels, you can remove them by “subtracting” one channel from the other. This works for many studio recordings, where the vocal track is mixed exactly in the center.

    To do this in Audacity:

    1. Import your stereo file into Audacity.
    2. Open the track menu (click the arrow next to the track title), and choose “Split Stereo Track.”
    3. Select the lower track (the right channel) by clicking it in the area around the mute/solo buttons.
    4. Choose “Invert” from the Effects menu.
    5. Using the track menus, change each track to “Mono.”

    Press the Play button to hear the results. If you are lucky, the voice will be gone but most of the other instruments will be unaffected, just like a karaoke track. You can use the Export commands in the File menu to save the results.

        wow, it doesnt take out the vocals, but it certainly does take out some tracks. in the postal service- such great heights it got rid of drums and bass. in a blood brothers song it took out the guitar. so its on the right track, right? some should work on this please =)

          You could always rewrite the main riffs you found to be that good and use your own ingenuity to add onto it
