I am trying to get just the vocals out of a song, as in remove the instruments and leave the vocals. I can only find a way to do the opposite, but for what I am trying to do that wouldn't be the desired result.
Not possible. If you're lucky you might find an acapella version of your song.
Look for master tracks.
Didn't Microsoft make some program that can do this?
I remember seeing it on youtube, it is possible. I just can't seem to find it again. How do you think people made all those songsmith remixes?
And for evidence, there is a songsmith version of Ace of Spades that uses the original vocal track, which they don't have a master available of anywhere (hence why Rockband 2 had a re-recorded version)

How in the hell do you ever find master tracks?

I usually get mine from youtube.

Example?
Youtube are you serious?

lol
you get the master tracks from the record label
If you can manage to rip, or at least find rips from Guitar Hero & Rock Band, then you should be able to remove the vocal tracks. Both of those games use master tracks to separate the songs.

This.
What you can do is just head on over to the [url=http://www.fretsonfire.net/forums/]Frets on Fire forum[/url], and use the search tool to look for all the Rock Band/Guitar Hero songs that have been ripped and converted. You're going to need to sign up to see the threads in Tune Posting, but it's no big deal.
All the song files are in .ogg format, so you're going to need [url=http://audacity.sourceforge.net/]Audacity[/url] to convert them. To export to .mp3, you're going to need to download the free [url=http://lame.buanzo.com.ar/]LAME Encoder[/url] for Audacity. If you want to convert to .wav, though, for whatever reason, then you don't need the encoder.
Hope this helps. :buddy:

it was a joke
I saw a tutorial on this once.. What you need is an instrumental of the song, and a full version of the song (including the vocals). There is a VST plugin that I believe you can get that will extract the vocals out, because you have the instrumental and full. If you google it, I bet you'll find it. I found this Tutorial on YouTube, FYI.

lol a link?
I guess I can make an instrumental of the song using methods off of youtube, and then somehow it will work.
But yeah I already know about the Guitar Hero/Rockband thing, the song I want to mess with isn't in either.
Mess around with an equalizer? It sucks though...
I stumbled upon this some time ago:

And I've been wondering ever since how this was done.

they got the vocals from the rockband master.
If you have the instrumental version of the song you can invert the original and mix them together. This will make it so the vocals pop out.
There's also the infamous mono exctraction. This works really bad and most of the time it doesn't work at all.

What song is this?
This isn't going to be overly helpful
But my school has a program which reduce's/amplify's the vocals, the rest of the music is there, just not as strong.
Though this wont because, Holidays just started so I wont be at school for a while..
Good luck though
If you can get hold of an instrumental of the song you can use the phase inversion method. Although keep in mind the instrumental and the original track have to be near identical in quality.
