This is a video tutorial on how to extract vocals from a song using Audacity. You can make an acapella from an mp3 using a track inversion method. It is important to note when your are extracting vocals that you need a quality instrumental to close match the waveforms of the actually song. The less the song matches the instrumental the more feedback you get after you invert your track and isolate vocals.

  • god thats alot of work :( is there like an easier way? i have like more than 300 tracks that i need to edit with in 3 days because im gonna be homeless after that :(

  • Interesting technique, but most of the time the waveforms of the two tracks just don't match that well and you can't extract clean vocals. IMO you're better off getting Adobe Audition and using the center channel extractor effect.

  • @TheSapphireTalent this is how get REMOVE the backing so you just have the sound.

  • THIS DOES NOT WORK!!!! STOP LYIN TO US

  • Haha how embarrassing, I didn't know that you could slide one track next to the other. (3:13) I would always delete ultra tiny silent portions of one of the tracks and hope it would line up well with the other (Which was a HUGE pain!). XD

    Thanks for showing me this, it was a huge help in making my projects sound better, and making my life easier! (Well, the next one, I mean. I'm in the middle of doing one now, so I can't start using the slide tool until I do the next song.)

  • can you help me,please?

  • Hello there! how are you?

    can help me,please?

  • @007mano1 thanks! =3

    

  • I know it seems lazy of me, but do you think I can send you the tracks and you isolate the audio for me? I can't match it up
