How to rip vocals from tracks??

Post by danthebangerboy » Sun May 24, 2009 10:54 pm

Hi everyone, me again!

Now, i know how to remove the vocals from tracks using the split track/mono/invert proceedure, however i would like to do the exact opposite, ie, be left with the vocals and lose everything else.

Is there a way to do this with audacity, as i am really keen to do some remixes of various stuff and need just the acapella versions without anything else.

I found a VST plugin called kn0ck0ut, which came out ok but it sounds muddy and distant, plus some of the beat still remains.

Any ideas??

Thanks once again in advance as you have all been very helpful before!
