Audacity Forum

Hello guys what a wondeful site got a major problem I recorded a song at my friends house when I play it on my computer from audacity or my home system. It works fine but when I move the mp3 file of the song on my phone and I uploaded it on youtube the first verse vocals blanked out and only the beat was playing and the hook on the song came out and when I was talking on the end of the track that came out weirdly enough and when I play it through the headphone it works fine and I can hear all the lyrics is there something I can do on audacity to fix this problem. Many thanks

Where is it so we can listen?

Sounds like you may have accidentally created a karaoke version : aka "centre pan removal" , aka "vocal removal", by inverting one of the stereo tracks.

na i haven't inverted one of the tracks. As a test I did invert one of the tracks then my first verse came out, but then the beat was watered down and the hook came out then my talking at the end blanked out now. This is very weird lol it hurting my head I just want to know if there anything I can do to fix it on audactiy

Damn is there anyway I could fix this guys?

You said in your original post that it plays fine in Audacity. Is this still true? If you export it as 16bit PCM WAV does that wav file playback OK in a media player (Windows Media Player for example)? If the WAV file plays back OK in a media player, export an MP3 file and try playing that in a media player. Does that play back OK? Do not use your phone or Youtube in all this. Just use your home system. The object of this to find out at what point the apparent corruption first makes its appearance.

I'm try what you said and I let you know what happens
