• How to Make an Acapella Questions!!
    8 replies, posted
I'm trying to take a certain song and isolate the vocals. I have Virtual DJ which I have heard can be used to make acapellas, if anybody has any ideas, whether about Virtual DJ or any other program, please inform me. Or if anybody here is willing to do the acapella for me, that would be cool too.
Not possible without [b]heavily[/b] distorting what will be left of the track (i.e unlistenable).
You can make a DIY acapella by separating the two channels of a stereo track and inverting one, but it really depends how the song is mixed and it often comes out sounding bad.
play the music perfectly and then invert it and add to the song
Have any of you ever tried to do it before? I can send the instrumental and the regular version if you want to try it, that would be much appreciated.

It could work if the vocals would be mixed 100% in one channel without anything else there, but the odds are your song is not! Go find an acapella version or sing it yourself. It's like taking a finished soup dish and trying to separate all the ingredients.
I know how to do it only if you have an instrumental version of the track along with the original. open Audacity or some other program like that and load both the original and instrumental. Highlight the instrumental track, and hit "Invert". this will invert the wave, cancelling out what the other track is playing. it will cancel out everything except for the vocals. you have to get both tracks lined up perfectly though.
Use the standard karaoke trick (Stereo invert) to REMOVE the vocals) so you get an instrumental. Then phase invert the vocal-less version against the orginal, thus cancelling out the instruments leaving you with vocals.
