Vocal Song
what is the best software to seperate vocal and music from a song?
I tried audacity but didn't work best. Is there any other best software to separate vocal and music from a song? Freeware.
The original multi-track studio recording is the only way to separate the vocal from the instruments..
The vocal can be removed with varying success with Audacity.
How well it works depends on how the track was mixed in the studio.
Below is the method again to double check.
If it's the same method you've already used what you've got is a good as it gets.
Method:
This is possible only for certain stereo tracks. When the vocals are exactly the same on both stereo channels, you can remove them by “subtracting” one channel from the other. This works for many studio recordings, where the vocal track is mixed exactly in the center. Be aware that bass and drums are usually panned to the center and can be removed or reduced also. Depending on how the track was mixed the vocal may only be reduced, not fully removed.
To do this in Audacity 1.2:
1. Import your stereo file into Audacity.
2. Open the track menu (click the arrow next to the track title), and choose “Split Stereo Track.”
3. Select the lower track (the right channel) by clicking it in the area around the mute/solo buttons.
4. Choose “Invert” from the Effects menu.
5. Using the track menus, change each track to “Mono.”
Press the Play button to hear the results. If you are lucky, the voice will be gone but most of the other instruments will be unaffected, just like a karaoke track. You can use the Export commands in the File menu to save the results.
Audacity 1.3:
Has a vocal remover built in. Just select the whole track then vocal remover from the effect menu.
