With a normal stereo recording the "centre section" does not really exist. Conventional stereo uses just left and right channels. Sounds that are in the centre of the stereo field are an illusion that is created by having identical content in both the left and the right channels. Vocal removal can be achieved by inverting (turning upside down) the waveform of one channel and adding (mixing) it with the other channel. Content that was previously identical in both channels becomes "opposite", and so when added together the inverted data cancels out the original version. The act of "adding" the left and (inverted) right channels together, by necessity, produces one output channel, which is then duplicated into both channels. There is a plug-in called "Channel Mixer" which allows other types of manipulation of left and right audio channels. The Channel Mixer plug-in is available here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Effect_Plug-ins#Channel_Mixer Steve On 25 November 2012 14:44, Robbie <tickleberryfun@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > mover and The audacity4blind web site is at //www.freelists.org/webpage/audacity4blind Subscribe and unsubscribe information, message archives, Audacity keyboard commands, and more...
