Hey Floorfiller,
Thanks for the reply. They offer one helluva collection at acapella-heaven.tk. I'm going email them about pricing. I also noticed some people on ebay selling 1500+ MP3 vocal acapellas for about $25. I wonder if it's the same batch of files circulating. Hmmm.
Thanks,
Mike |

Cool site, how do they make those?
They sound pretty good:) |

HI DarkFall01,
I'm not sure if it's possible to extract the vocals from a track, but a lot of times the acapella will be included on an album so DJ's can mix it with other beats, etc. I would assume it would be more likely to appear on a vinyl album than a cd version.
Thanks,
Mike |

| it is actually quite possible... I've done some acapella extracting in cool edit and soundforge but it is EXTREMELY difficult and time consuming (for me anyways) |

Hey, thx for the reply. Yeah, I always thought it wasn't possible to extract vocals from an already finished track.
These samples are giving me some good ideas for productions, I'm gonna try and find some more.

| I've heard that you can take out vocals if you have an instrumental and a vocal version. I've since forgotten the actual term for it, but the technique involves removing all of the out-of-phase segments. Never tried it out myself though, so I don't know if it works (or if it does, how well it works). |

| You just line the 2 tracks up perfectly, at the same volume or whatever, and reverse the phase of the instumental... This will (hopefully) exactly cancel out the instruments and not the vocals... Leaving you with the acapella. I haven't tried it myself though, and it seems like it would be prone to even the slightest differences in mix/effects or even i guess mp3 compression, but who knows give it a shot. |

theoretically that should work but realistically, no it won't work or at least it would be very unlikely UNLESS it was directly ripped from a wav or mp3 from the direct source...
Most mp3's out there of vocal and instrumental versions are obtained through vinyl and cd rips and the processes that is used to obtain them will vary the exact phase shifts and changes and timing of the track... a slight millisecond (0.001 second) of error between the vocal and the instrumental versions will cause the entire alignment to be off...
Best way for me to isolate vocals is
1) run the vocals through a process that will isolate the stereo aspect of the track (thereby eliminating most of the bass and kick and snare provided they are in mono which quite a lot of EDM tracks have)
2) find individual elements of the song and take the "image" of it (ie. snare, hi hats, synth). Now go through the passage with the vocals and try to extract each element out individually... this is the part that takes excruciating long to do
I hope that made at least a bit of sense... best way to get vocals is just to get acapellas off the net or just have your mom sing :haha: :stongue: |

yeah..i've tried doing the instrumental thing and i couldn't really get it to work.
hey Kewlness,
do you any tips at acapella removal. i've had the greatest idea of using this vocal from a track, but its too obscure to find an acapella. its downtempo and has some light percussion over it...any idea as to how i might get rid of that?
as for acapella-heaven...you shouldn't have to pay, unless they changed their rules or something...just join the forums and you can trade them...
EDIT: nevermind kewlness hehehe...i just read the post RIGHT ABOVE ME!! hehehe ;) |

Any decent wave editor will do. The instrumental and vocal versions must be EXACTLY the same apart from the vocals. Maybe in some vocal versions the levels of the instuments will be different because of the vocals affecting compression or whatever, so it will either be impossible or very difficult to get a clean acapella.
And the 2 tracks must be lined up to the sample or it wont work. |
