actually Roy was the one to suggest it.
i have never tried it, 
i only suggested you should try the demo. i heard the audio demo and it's not 
bad at all. of course it is impossible to do a clean extraction but it can work 
pretty good for remixes.
and one thing i'm sure is that   it will work much better than sound forge for 
that purpose.
saludos

  Luis,

  Will sound forge do the same thing this other program you suggested does?

    i have no idea but i suggest you try it.
    it may have enough presets to do the job.
    good luck.

      Hi Luis,

      Thanks for the info. Do you know if this program is accessible with jaws?

        hi Omar:
        you can try the extra boy demo and check if it'll work for you.
        i think that it may be enough for working  electronic stuff. i have 
heard a lot of versions made with the original track and only using eq  and 
creating music on top of it.
        and it doesn't sound bad, it depends on what you want to  accomplish.
        .

          I've just been searching the net for a way to do this, and I guess 
there's no genuine way of getting perfect acapella using any kind of software. 
They're saying that you can get the acapella to songs if you get them on vinyl.

            Hi Omar
            I've just checked and there is an option in Audition the centre 
channel extract and one of the presets is accapella (apologies for the 
spelling). It's as good as the vocal remove in that it certainly focuses on the 
voice but there is still a trace of the background music. It's good but perhaps 
not good enough.
            Regards.
            Gordon

              Gordon,

              Will the software you mentioned work for waht i'm trying to do? I 
just want vocals and not the music.

                Hi Gene
                Apologies if this is the case. I should have read things more 
clearly.

                  I thought Omar wanted exactly the opposite of what you  are 
suggesting!!!
                  He doesn't want vocals removed from a track to make it a 
karaoke track, he wants to extract the vocals and disregard the music!!!

                    Hi Omar
                    There are one or two programs which purport to help extract 
vocals.There is Vocal Remover which can be googled - it has accessible menus 
but does need a bit of Jaws censoring if you wish to follow their instructions 
for vocal remove. Sighted help would be advisable the first couple of times til 
you get used to the layout.
                    It's fairly good but if there's echo on the vocal track you 
may be left with some trace.
                    I also Use Adobe Audition 1.5 - this has a vocal remove 
option. It's more effective I think in some of the songs I've tried, but it 
still leaves a trace in some cases.What can be helpful here is to purchase an 
instrumental version of the song and lower the main instrument - this can work 
well. 
                    I'm maybe telling you what you know already but Itunes has 
a large range of Karaoke songs, many of which are of excellent quality. Napster 
has too, but not some many. I usually type in the Istore search karaoke, and 
the name of the song or the artist - often I'm surprised.
                    Hope this helps and is not giving more than you wish.

                      Hello,

                      I'm interested in doing remixes of coversongs, but my 
question is: do we have access to any kind of software that will allow us to 
extract only the vocals out of a song, so that we get the accapella version of 
it?

                      Thanks.
