You can easily do this with many of the Beatle songs, because they put the voices on one track/channel/whatever and the music on the other. Turn the balance to the right and all you get is one side of the equation. Led Zepplin might be a little trickier....
I have a program called wavepad. It's free to try and about 30.00 to keep. You can filter stuff out with it, but I don't know how well that would work.

Is there a way to do it? Software, > hardware, or just singing louder than the recording artist? This doesn't always work, but... Often in a stereo song the singer is recorded in the 'middle' but the instruments & backing play at the 'edges'. You can use this to cancel out the singer. If you invert one channel and merge it with the other any sounds that is common to both channels will be cancelled out. This results in a mono song of course! There's probably better ways to do this! -- Paul [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
