What software or programs remove vocals from a song?

Posted on March 1st, 2010 by admin in vocals | 1 Comment »

For example I found this song played without vocals and it sounds nice. Then it occur to me that I wanna try the same but with different songs. Any suggestion of type of free programs that does this?

Don’t get your hopes up. This doesn’t work for all songs. It depends on how they are mixed in the studio.
Download Audacity:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Lame if needed to encode and save to mp3:
http://lame.sourceforge.net/
Basic tutorial:

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.

How many of you think Slipknot’s a heavy metal band?

Posted on March 1st, 2010 by admin in heavy metal | 5 Comments »

I’ve heard from people that Slipknot’s not a heavy metal band, but a nu metal band/hard rock band. How many of you metalheads think Slipknot’s a real heavy metal band?

Is not HEAVY!!! Is Nu metal. heavy metal are judas priest, black sabbath and such, listen one song of them and you will hear the difference.

How do I remove rust from metal in my bathroom?

Posted on March 1st, 2010 by admin in metal | 10 Comments »

What kind of fluids can I use to remove rust from metal objects in my bathroom? And what kind of scrubbing pad should I use without scratching the metal objects?

Thanks!
Wayne

I also have heard good stuff about bar keepers friend. You can also try products like CLR. I mention this because i have not seen bar keepers friend in my store.
Additonally i think the type of scrubbing pad you use will depend on the surface you are cleaning. I would worry that any brillo or metal pad would leave scratches. A good rust remover should not need too much scrubbing aid.

Why are music albums released in different areas of the world at different times?

Posted on March 1st, 2010 by admin in released | 2 Comments »

And why does the same album have different songs in different regions?
What’s the point?
Why isn’t there just one standard world-wide album released at the same time?

The market is different in most countries. A lot of what’s popular here plays second fiddle to other countries’ mainstays. Record labels have distributors in these countries and monitor when a "good time" to release is. There may be a Big Thing going on in Germany perhaps…something made in Germany that the people are GA GA for. It would be unwise to release something with tough competition. In other countries that are more like the U.S., musically speaking, like the U.K. you’ll see the same release dates. There is more to it than just that…contracts, touring schedules, and demographics play a role too. What pisses me off is when other countries get tracks on their CDs that we don’t get…or hafta go to iTunes for.

Left 4 Dead 2 is released!!

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by admin in released | 25 Comments »

Here it is, my first official game in Left 4 Dead 2 on the first level of Dead Center

I’m going to be playing and recording a lot in the next few weeks and if I have the time I might start to compile them into a funny montage or two…

So far from what I’ve seen, Valve has tried to give the game more of a time line feel where each character learns about the new infected and items as they come along. So far its worked out pretty well and its fun to see our characters calling the hunters “hoodies” and the jockies “freaks”. I also noticed how valve has made an extra effort at making each level unique in at least one way. This has been a great addition with different types of gauntlet points and even some pretty funny easter eggs. I’ll make a video of more when I have time.

Why do Christianity think rock n roll is the Devil’s music?

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by admin in rock music | 19 Comments »

I’m just asking because in the early days of rock n roll, the Christians were saying that rock music
is the Devil’s music.

…because it was very expressive and christians hate freedom of expression.

Is the Everything Axe pickup set good for playing heavy metal?

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by admin in heavy metal | 1 Comment »

I want a set that will make my squire into the most possibly versatile guitar I can afford and the SD Everything Axe seems to be the best choice i just want to know if they can handle stuff like Iron Maiden,Metallica, Ratt, and other heavy metal.

P.S. The other set i was looking into was the Lace Sensor Red-Blue-Silver but SD has a better name and better reviews

those pickups might work, but on a squire you might also need to upgrade to a locking bridge to play the heavy stuff and stay in tune.
