You're probably not likely to find songs prepared this way though. The vocal remover method you're familiar with removes material that is identical in both channels and (sort of) preserves what's different between the channels. It can't work the other way around.

Reply by: heinz3110 Date:8/26/2003 1:45:06 AM ...I know the drill for removing vocals...doesn't have any use for me (believe me..you don't wanna hear me sing gun's and roses,barry manilow and such.) ;) I had an conversation once with someone...I used this conversation as cut-up samples in an old song of mine.Since all midi and such is reproducable but those samples (lost the soundbankdata then,let alone the original conversation,it was 1995 or something) the only thing I have left is a DAT tape of that arrangement.O well....if it can't be done.... And yes ,those samples ARE in the middle.Duh. Maybe some idea for a HotNewProduct ?? Instead of ads in music mags about "Remove vocals! Sing along with the best " and such, there would be something like "Remove accompany! Have a great singer at your disposal!" Etc. :) Gerard
