I read of an advanced Producing technigue wherein one inverts the waveform of the instrumental, lays it over the record, effectively cancelling out the instruments - leaving the clear vocals. Sounds complicated. I cannot confirm or deny, but sounds entirely feasible.

Re: Keep voice, remove background noise and music

I found a solution to this. (worked for me at least)

Quite simple and straight forward!

Download (free open source!) Audacity.

Load your audio file. (Video file didnt work for me, i had to convert it to an audio before I could process the file, in my case it was a vob file)

Once loaded, select the area you want to filter/extract voice of. (Sample it first, then get excited ... :smile:)

Then go to Effects tab and scroll down until u see Low Pass filter. Play with the parameters and im sure you will have the solution there.

(I had bad noise on my wedding video which i wanted to get rid off and it seems to have done the job:smile:)

Good luck

Ive tried this and it doesnt always work. It depends if it was one-tracked or multi-tracked, stereo, mono...Im not too familiar with the proper verbiage or whatever but you go on youtube and follow tutorials.

Yeah it has to be multi-tracked. You not going to be able to get a true acapella from a one-track.
