Fruity Loops help

Hey I was wondering if I can make an instrumental out of a song I have. Is it possible to take the words out of a song with Fruity Loops? If so is it difficult?

It is possible to take some out but the vocals will still be there. You would have to have the individual tracks to completly remove it. Dont think fruity loops can do it. I bet Brock would know for sure.

EDIT: looks like you just want to take a small sample out of a song. YES, that is possible. There are detailed instructions on how to do in in the manual and or help files.

no.....fruity loops is a sofsynth program......its used to make beats from scratch or take samples from other beats.....the only way to remove the vocals would be to have the individual tracks like jntar said

I figured it wasn't possible. Thanks man. Yeah I am sure brock knows everything about it, he's made hundreds of beats on there.

not possible...under any circumstance

music is like cooking... you add ingredients, at no point in time can you remove something that has been added unless you start over from scratch... or find the instrumental

Kanye West does it! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Don't even look into vocal removers - you're bound to run into one if you do a little searching. Vocal Removers play on the fact that most songs throw the vocals right in the middle of your head, while instruments are around your head; maybe some hi-hats on the left ear, some brass on your right ear, etc...so what they do is drop that center channel....which, in theory, leaves everything that was not panned directly center. The problem is kick drums, snares, and bass [guitar] are usually panned center too....so you lose that. Then there's tracks that don't follow 'the rule', if you'd like to call it that.

However, there are some ways (but comprising is in this same path)

- Looping parts of the song where there are no words

- Sometimes on oldschool tracks (mainly a lot of 60s & early 70s productions), the vocal track would sit all the way on one side (sometimes the other side might have the reverberation of those vocals)...so you could just make your track by only utilizing that one side that does not have the main vocals...and you'd still need some looping. One track that is a good example of this is the sample used in "Poppin' My Collar" by 3-6. The sample is by Willie Hutch, album is the OST of Motion Picture The Mack (1973), and the song is "Theme of the Mack". But like the 'vocal removers', if you only use one side, you may be missing a lot that was on the same side as the vocals.

So really there are ways to get around vocals, but never truly eliminate them, leaving only the backing track. To get an exact duplicate of a track minus the vocals, impossible if you don't have the individual tracks that comprised "the mix".

It IS possible but the equipment/program is illegal to own obviously and is extremely expensive.....my boy was looking into getting one...unless he is lying to me...and the print out he showed me of it was a fake then it might not be possible...but I swear I've seen it done before....or so I think...

there is no possible way to remove vocals without disturbing the original instrumental mix. you can eliminate the frequencies in which the vocals sit, but taking into account the wide sonic range of the human vocal its a major chunk of sound. in other words, i'm telling you what your friend has shown you is fake. there are programs and machines that *claim* to do this, but ultimately they have all failed.

if you found the acapella you could subtract it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

you are right. If you found the acapella, and then subtracted the vocals from it, you would have the track.

A blank track.
