Im sure this is a lot like the rest...the vocals need to be 'centered' for it to work effectively. In any case, this could be a useful tool. Impressive video...

Removing a lead vocal from a Stereo Recording

Note: This technique works using the same methods as hardware boxes costing many times the price of this product. However, it has the same limitations as many of these hardware solutions in that the vocals to be removed must have been mixed in the exact center of the stereo field by the recording engineer. Many recordings are made this way, but some are not.


LDB-IF THE VOX AREN'T IN OR EXTREMELY CLOSE TO THE MIDDLE NOTHING WILL WORK!


The following procedure will very often be effective in removing a lead vocalist's performance from a stereophonic recording. This is useful when you desire to over-dub your own rendition of the performance onto the original song. If there is a lot of ambient sound (reverberation) associated with the original artist, it may not be removed along with the vocal itself. This is seldom a problem, since the ambient sound is not very distinct, and will not drastically deter from your own over-dub performance. It is important to note that this technique will not work with a monophonic source. It is also important to note that this technique very much relies on the type of material you are using. It will produce better results on more acoustic type music and sometimes no success on music with heavy walls of instruments.



1. Open your desired stereo file.

2. Open the Channel Blender feature (Effects Menu).

3. Set Left and Right to 100% blend

4. Select Invert Phase on the left channel

5. Select Blend to Mono and choose “Below”.

6. Set the Blend to Mono adjustment to 160 Hz.

7. Click on the Preview button.

8. You should hear the Source .wav file with an attenuated lead vocalist, with perhaps a little bit of reverberation (echo) in the background.

9. Adjust one of the two-slider controls downwards first. Observe if the lead vocalist gets louder or softer. If it gets louder, readjust the control upwards, looking for a point on the slider control wherein the lead vocal is nulled out (minimized).

10. Click on "Run Filter."

R-MIX
Audio Processing Software

Innovative Mix-Manipulation Software for Mac/PC and iPad

FEATURES

Welcome to an exciting new era of “visual” audio manipulation. R-MIX software — powered by Roland’s newly developed V-Remastering technology in conjunction with VariPhrase — lets you see the components of a stereo mix as color-coded clouds of energy and harmonic matter as the song plays! Select your desired components of the mix, and freely edit them — an impossible task in the past. You can change panning positions and levels to individual instruments within a stereo mix, for example, and add effects to each element as desired. You can even independently adjust the pitch and speed of the playback, realized with VariPhrase.

How does this power translate to you? You can use R-MIX to easily create “minus-one” type karaoke files from existing songs by lowering the level of a pre-recorded vocal or any other instrument you select within each mix. You can also create your own remixes and mash-ups by using two pairs of stereo tracks within R-MIX. As a skill-building tool, R-MIX can be used to isolate any desired instrument within a mix, and then solo and slow down that element for study; isolate a fast guitar solo, for example, and slow it down to learn it. R-MIX can be used to clean up old recordings and master stereo mixes by adjusting individual instrument levels and applying noise reduction and effects, and all with ease and at a high level of sound quality.
