How to remove vocals from an song to make an acapella.

"Sorry man, it just can't be done. Once it's mixed down it's a wrap. You cannot seperate the vocals from the beat! It's impossible. If your software is making this claim then your porbably about to get ripped off."

excerp from
"The Hip Hop Producers Bible"
Chapter 19



HHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA....

well, there is ONE POSSIBLE WAY...if you're really good (or lucky), you may be able to do it this way:

Open up a wav editor
open the song you want to strip the vocals from
now find (if possible) the instrumental version of that song
Now invert the instrumental version of the song, and place it "EXACTLY" over the vocals
If you did it right, all you will hear is the vocals (well, if the vocals are placed DEAD CENTER of the mix)

Good Luck
