Audioalter
Audioalter
This is a free web tool that allows you to remove the vocals from a song to create a karaoke version of it. How good the results will be depends on how the track is recorded. If any instruments are centered, they will also get removed. The vocals are removed by using the OOPS (Out Of Phase Stereo) effect. The OOPS effect relies on that most songs have the the vocals perfectly centered while the instruments are panned slightly to the left and right channel. The two channels are then subtracted from each other, and since the vocals are as present on the left channel as the right channel, they will cancel each other out and dissapear. This tool is specifically made to be used with voice recordings and will reduce unwanted sounds from the recordings while trying to maintain a good audio quality.Starting Price: Free -

VCV RACK
VCV RACK
VCV RACK simulates a modular synthesizer where each module itself can be a challenge to simulate on a modern computer, whether it’s a virtual analog model with hundreds of analog components to simulate, or a digital module designed to be run on an ARM microprocessor similar to your smart phone’s. A common patch of a hundred modules can require billions of floating point calculations per second to simulate and millions of 2D path elements to draw using OpenGL. Use VCV Recorder to record audio or video. It operates in engine “time”, not real-time, and therefore does not record real-time audio hiccups/stuttering. This means that any hiccups/stuttering you hear in real time will not be present when the recording is played back. Plugins extend VCV RACK functionality by adding one or more modules to use in your patch. Plugins are typically installed via the VCV Library. Save, share, edit, and move around selections of modules.Starting Price: $19 per month -
