Re: Removing bass/drums from a song
In general, you can't take apart a mixed song. Even vocal removal fails most of the time.

There's only one free tool and that's Vocal Removal, but it works on a special case of removing everything in the middle of a stereo show. Obviously, the original show has to be in stereo and it's best if the song is not a highly compressed internet download. Vocal Removal also removes anything in the middle and that usually means bass and drums go, too.
You encounter all the usual problems: It doesn't work on a mono show or a highly compressed MP3, if the singer or drums aren't in the middle it fails, if the song has stereo special effects, the "ghost" drums and singer get left behind.
