audacity is what i use frequently while making acapellas. The noise removal feature is very powerful and unlike most noise removal features.

U select a soundclip within a song (Any length of time from nano seconds to hours!) And then remove that noise from that song!

Please try it u may find it of some use! Any feedback most appreciated! Cheesy Grin

P.S - It takes minutes to download! Plus no other crappy files with it just the software and it is freeware meaning 100% free!

Willz. Thanks for sharing this info with us. Please can I ask if you are willing to write a quick step by step guide on how you create an acapella in this programme. I'm sure I won't be alone when I say that your help would be so greatly appreciated.
Take care

Val

Sure thing DJ Val! I will right one up and post up in a new topic titled:
Free Software: Audacity + Quick Guide

Just because my previous topic name seems tacky and people may think it's "another one of thoose softwares claiming to make accapellas"

But yes a quick guide with pictures will be posted shortly. Cheesy Grin

Thanks Willz. I'm just wondering if you should post it in the "Tutorials" forum. I'll speak to admin to make sure it's not removed in error.
Thank you for your time and support for a4u.
Take care

Val

Hey this sounds fantastic - gr8 stuff Willz.

May I suggest that as members arent able to create NEW posts within the Tutorials section that you create the text and links to any pictures in the forum ready format and email or PM me the detail so I can take a look at it once you're ready ok?

Cheers, thanks once again.

p.s would really like to hear a selection of acapella extractions that you've done with Audacity.

I've played around with audacity for a while now, I've even tried to do this with it, but perhaps I was a bit overzealous at the time.
I was digging the changes in the sound, gave it a unique factor.
Please forgive me if I don't use technical terms, I just know what I like and what sounds I'm looking for at any time and just dive in from there. Smilie_PDT

willz, that would be spot on,
recently got audacity but like most programmes it seems to work in a different format from as all the others ive used before it!,
so a guide to what u know would be truly apreciated,
