angel6 Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Hi! Here I am again wanting your expert knowledge! A friend has just asked me if there's any programme one can buy (Or a free download one!) to put onto the pc to burn a cd but without the lyrics, she is learning to play various musical instruments and wants to take the singing of a few cd's to be left with just the music. Does anyone have any info? Lovies ~ Angel x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Not really. When a song is made, it is comprised of seperate channels or tracks - one containing drums, one containing bass, vocals etc. When the song is mastered to go onto a CD, all the channels are combined together. The best thing to do is either look for karaoke CDs or get MID files of the songs from the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phanerothyme Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 or get midi music and use the internal synthesizer on your soundcard to do the rest. There are plugins for winamp that try to remove the vocals IMMSMC, they certainly exist for other programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel6 Posted August 18, 2003 Author Share Posted August 18, 2003 Many thanks, I will inform her, the plug in thingy sounds like a good bet :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Ruscoe Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Have you tried searching for Karaoke backing tracks... after all, that's what we're talking about here, isn't it? Some of them are created using the original band's backing track (depending on the band, of course). Not sure where to download them, but you could try searching on Google.

angel6 Posted August 18, 2003 Author Share Posted August 18, 2003 Yes, but it is vintage music e.g 1920's and she cannot find backing tracks, it's not really karaoke, thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Ruscoe Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Aha - that's a bit clearer! I guess 20s songs aren't really that popular on Karaoke Nevertheless, there may still be tracks intrumental versions available to download. What sort of instruments are we talking about here? Brass, wind, etc...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel6 Posted August 18, 2003 Author Share Posted August 18, 2003 Well, the information I have gained is that she wants 20's/30's songs without vocals, from what I can gather I think big band sounds too from the 30's She seems to be having difficulty obtaining music from this era, but trying to get it as sort of a backing track is even harder Thanks once more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
