All of them degrades the quality of the original recording (such as filtering the bass too much) and introduces a lot of audio artifacts/noises.
I have tried with other software solutions such as plug-in in Reaper and still do not remove vocals properly. I also tried using the latest Audacity version in Windows 7 but do not seem to the remove vocals very well.
However there is a catch, some Audacity versions (like in Windows XP) does not yet include the vocal removal feature. Removing Vocals in AudacityĪudacity is free software that you can use to remove vocals. It’s important to “Save As” when you are saving any edited audio. Be careful not to overwrite your original audio when working with it. The rest of the settings can be left at its default, feel free to experiment further with the rest of the settings.

If the vocals are panned to either right or left, not in the center, then it won’t be removed with “Center” settings then you need to set it accurately to the correct location.įrequency range = this is the estimated and effective vocal related frequencies to be removed.Ĭenter channel level = the lower the settings (more negative dB), the more vocals will be removed. It is because if you directly save your work from Adobe Audition editor, it will “overwrite” the original and you won’t be able to recover it again.īelow are the important technical settings of Center Channel Extractor that you should know:Ĭenter = Get audio phased at: Most vocals are panned in the center during mixing process, so it is why this is set to center because this is where the vocals are located. Warning: It is very important to “Save As” always particularly if you are working with original audio. Do not forget to save it as “Windows PCM (*.wav)”, this will save it as a lossless audio format. Go to File = Save As, and then type the file name. Center channel extractor vocal remove presetsĨ.) Once you have applied the settings to the entire waveform, it is now the time to save it.
