Dolby 5.1 recordings can be placed on
both DVDs, and audio CDs, just make sure it says that the audio is in 5.1
surround sound format on the CD cover.

Accapellas
Nice one mate..
When you talk about Dolby 5.1 stripping.. Are you talking about
lifting stuff from movies/DVDs.?? Can you get pure audio in 5.1 format
??
anyone ?
cheers,
Nick
You can't [yet] rip vocals out of a mix
thats already made, you can only EQ out dominant bass, or high pitch
sounds. You can't [yet] cut out the mid range must, because the your
vocals will sound muted. You cannot do any of that without fukeing up
the sound of the acapella you desire so much, but there are other
options....Check out the remixes at: "http://www.arktikos.com/bjork",
for example;
We have done a lot of study on this for the
Bjork Remix web site we work on. There are over a thousand remixes
there, [lots by me] that use various techniques for acapella sampling,
sometimes, we cut the full tracks into segments and sample them aroungd
the vocals, cutting out parts with no voice in them. Then you use your
instrumental mix track to overpower the sounds in the cuts, check out my
remix of "AURORA" the {RIPSB mix} for this. It comes out a little noisy,
but that noise can add a cool ambience at times. The Jungle rhythm of my
instrumental track overpowers almost all of the other sounds from the
original track.
Sometimes a pure acapella track can be used
in the same way and cut into segments and re-arranged to remix the song
in a Hip-Hop style, like my remix of "OXYGEN" [not the silver seas
remix, the other one]. If you listen to the original songs by Bjork for
these, you will see how radical the change is, the tracks that are
remixed here are the uncut songs rom her full albums, Bjork never
releases Acapellas, until recently, the only acapella available was of
her song "Hidden Place" from her Album Vespertine.
Someone on the site had discovered a new
method though for Dolby 5.1 recordings lately. They found that the
center channel signal from a dolby 5.1 recording oftenly only had the
singer's voice in an acapella [maybe some sound accents] but mostly just
a dedicated acapella track. They had isolated the vocals and pulled them
from that channel of the mix and began creating remixes with those
vocals. If you need vocals from a 5.1 recording, you might want to check
this method out further. this would also be able to be used for pulling
samples out of original 5.1 recordings as well, as different sounds are
placed on different speakers for surround sound ambience.
Otherwise, you are just left with working
with simple acapella tracks, they often have ghost signals in them of
the original beats so that you can still calculate the BPM of the
acapella track on studio & Dj equipment, and that makes it easier
for the sound engineer to match up with other stuff later on. If the
original beat is ghosted into the acapella, don't worry, just EQ it out
by boosting the right areas of your remix instrumental track. I do this
all the time. For more questions, please ask, you can also find remixes
of other artist's songs that I have made in AudioGalaxy.
Well, now that I've written a book, I
gotta get back to work....Peace out!!!...............>Winterman
