Taking Vocals off a Sample

i was wonderin how you can take a sample with say a melody and a vocal and MAYBE some drums and take away the vocals or at least make them blend in with the melody.

if you dont know what im talkin about then look at the beat for ill bills "unstoppable". it starts off with the vocal in it and then you can hear it blend in sortof with the melody.

any shit works just post it.

i figure you need to eq it but what specificaly....

I've asked this same question before but peeps don't answer because they think you want to know so you can jack 1 of their beats and remove the vocals i quess.Which is a F***in' ridiculous assumption but i'm sure there is some type of software that can acheive this.

use
filters...

EQ there is no preset settings to cut out vocals.. Each sample and each vocal sample is different...

Sometimes you can use a low-pass filter to filter out the actual words of the vocals so they blend in with the sample like you're talking about... 9th Wonder has used this technique as well...

Basically you're left where you can still hear that there were vocals, but you have no clue what they're saying...

Just experiment with the low-pass filter in the MPC... It's not hard to do, but it won;t work on every sample or every voice... Just trial and error is the key...

Use analog x vocal remover. It makes the vocals sound as they were turne down in the mix.

I've nevr used this plug-in or anything, but I have a Vocal remover.... I assume this works the same as the rest... It phases out the vocals... Leaving you with a Mono sample of the everything but the vocals as well as all the reverb from the vocals... It rarely sounds good applied to most samples... Everything usually sounds cluttered or boring because it's not in stereo... Rarely leaving desirable results...

Actually I haven't used this app in a minute but it does work almost the same as yours. If you freak the sample enough you'll find a sound your looking for.

got it from Sound on Sound mag in a wav editor on a stereo file invert the right track and split it into dual mono files mix them back together and the vocal with phase out in the center but not the background vocals which are in chorus. Be careful to because it can take out alot of bass too. Mofos don`t wanna share the knowledge.
