There are a bunch of ways.....but what you're leaning towards sounds like you'd need the multi-track session from the producer of the track. Unless there's an isolated section of the song you're interested in remixing, with vocals by themselves, it isn't easy to make sound good. Some software (for cheap karaoke stuff) exists that allow you to pick out the the eq range that most vox rests in, and to some degree you can either get rid of or isolate the vocals enough to work with it. It may sound kind of tinny, but another way, is to use Live, and put a heavy high-pass filter on the track. It'll allow you to at least put different types of beats underneath everything. It won't be easy to change keys though if you want to drastically change the melody underneath it.----Nate On Jan 6, 2009, at 12:19 AM, wownflutter wrote:
