audacity 2.1.1 on a macos sierra 10.12.4 - removing vocals

Post by cathsing1 » Thu May 11, 2017 8:30 am

Hi, i use Audacity to change pitches, slow tracks etc.. I've ever been able to remove vocals to produce a clear instrumental (if i cannot already by online as old track etc...) I'm not sure if i remove middle, vocal reduction, isolation etc?? I've tried but you can still hear vocal in background etc.... i really need a step by step please... Thank you.

Please understand that removing vocals is not a given when all you have is the mix. You are trying to unbake a cake.

See: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tuto ... ation.html for some methods you can try.
