Re: Removing music vocals in gold wave, is it possible?
Hi all,
Vocal removing plugins or effects essentially assume that your vocal is going to be directly in the center of the stereo field. While this is logical, you must keep in mind that there may also be instruments in this channel as well. Also, keep in mind that some songs place harmonies elsewhere in the stereo field, leaving a reduced lead vocal but leaving the harmonies with the instrumental. The only efficient way of removing a vocal or an instrumental is, to find the original vocal/instrumental, and invert that with the original track. In Goldwave, to do this, first you must click invert in the effects menuu on either track. You must not do both tracks. Next, copy the first track. Then, go to the other track, press control+m, and then line the two up by adjusting the mix time in the edit box. Eventually, once you get it right, the vocal/instrumental will cancel itself out of the track. Note, this may leave artifacts, and it sometimes is impossible to entirely align th e tracks due to timing differences or pitch differences. In this case, sadly, there is no other way. There might be software out there that can do it, but I've never heard of it.
