  • guitar canceler?

    Does anyone know of a multitrack recorder that is able to just cancel out the guitar track of a song. So that I can use them as backing tracks for practicing.

    I have these softwares and I don't know if either is capable. if someone knows it would be af great help.

    At this time the Jam Vox is considered to be state of the art in terms of cancelling out guitar parts- it is a hardware/software package that sells for around $250 that works only when the hardware box is connected.

    I would think that 3rd party developers would be creating plug-ins that handle cancellation of both guitar and vocal parts; you might want to look into that. (I'm not sure what kind of plugin work with your programs- there are several different kinds nowadays.)

    Good luck!

      This sounds like a Vocal Zapper application. The simple op-amp hardware versions rely on the vocal (or guitar) to be in the center of the mix. You could emulate the same thing in your favorite audio editor by inverting one channel and then adding them together. Of course you'd have to start with a stereo file, otherwise the whole thing would cancel if you started with a mono signal and copied it before inverting. Pulling a guitar out of a mix otherwise might be a pretty tricky proposition.

          I don't know about canceling guitar tracks, but I have used Guitar Pro, which allows you to shut down specific parts of the downloaded song. The song files are much like MIDI files, and can be exported as such. I've used this program to find songs I like, "turn off" the guitar tracks, export the drums and bass to MIDI, and open in Temper (or another DAW), where I run the drum track through Session Drummer and the bass through a free DSK VST.

            Try the Tascam MP-GT1.You can store up to 240 MP3s. Guitar parts can be slowed down, looped and even eliminated to help you to learn new riffs. Play back MP3s using Variable Speed Audition, which slows down the speed without changing the pitch, and sections can be seamlessly looped while practicing tricky passages. Songs can even be pitched up or down to match the tuning of your guitar, so you don't have to re-tune for every song. It uses a high-speed USB connection to load up MP3s and charge the built-in 9 hour lithium battery.

                I have found that cancelation software/hardward usually does a fairly bad job. AS stated before, they work off the premise that what you want cancelled is dead center in the stereo image.

                  It might be worth giving Winamp a try, a vocal remover plugin may work well for certain tracks.

                  PaceMaker - Winamp

                  Vocal Remover - Winamp

                  Can't hurt to try, it's free.

                  S.

                  P.S. Linzday, I so enjoy your posts.
