Vocal Removal Software
Vocal Removal Software
I am setting up a karaoke show with a no 1 hits theme, and this necessitates using old songs as far back as the sixties. I have purchased all the later year songs, but have to make my own for a lot of the older ones, and now need a vocal remover for these. Can anyone suggest one that works reasonably well?
Maybe I wasn't as clear as i might have been, but i am getting an Australian No 1's show together, and have purchased all that i could get my hands on, but still need to get around 25 tracks that i have searched everywhere for. I well understand that no vocal removing software works as well as one would like, but was merely asking for opinion. I truly hope that i haven't offended the condecendium's senses too greatly.wiseguy wrote:No vocal removers work well. They never remove all the lead vocals and always degrade the music quality. There are many thousands of karaoke song titles available from the sixties to present on the various disc labels.

If you "well understand" the effectiveness of vocal reducers then your question was pointless. Use only professional karaoke or backing tracks or end up with some amateurish production.

OK, first of all, using original tracks with a vocal removers in a show like that would be a violation of the copyright on the original work. So don't be so shocked that folks here aren't really willing to offer up much support. Second, get whatever vocal remover software you find because there isn't really much difference between them. They all suck. They all result in tracks that are almost unintelligle as the original track.
Understand for a moment how vocal removal works. Basically, it cuts out the frequencies of the vocals which means any instruments in that same frequency range are getting cut out too. The result is it sounds like crap. So as wiseguy said, your question is pretty much pointless because there isn't an answer for it.

www.kjpro.com has a songlist browser that will allow you to browse their database. If it is in there then it exists for the most parts. www.sbikaraoke.com has some obscure songs you might not find elsewhere.
Just because you want them, doesn't mean you will get them.
There are many songs that were never available on karaoke. And the ones that were made might not be available any longer. Lost (expired) rights to use the song for any more copies.
Finding them on Ebay or some other site from someone that is going out of business, could help.
Many disc players had the one touch vocal remover feature. As stated above sometimes it works really well, but most times it removed so much of the music is wasn't worth doing it. You could always hear the vocals slightly in the background also.
