hey im trying to take the lyrics out of a song. but its more complicated than that. i need to change the key also. so im using mixcraft to change the key of it. but i still need the other one to take the voices out. i save it after i change the key on mixcraft but when i try to load it it says its not recognizable. it says to import it raw and i do but it has me answer some wierd questions like. "encoding, byte order,channels" and stuff like that and i dont know what to put. so if you know of another way to do it or even know what to put for the questions it would really help. thanks.

Pete has a point.

Pitch change and lyric removal can be done with Audacity.

What format are you saving the Mixcraft files in?

If you're saving in the Mixcraft native file format it will not be recognized by Audacity.

You will need to save in wav, mp3, Ogg or aiff format to use in Audacity.

Audacity also has it's own muti-track saving format .aup. This would not be recognized by Mixcraft.



Change pitch.

Highlight whole track. (click on blank area of the Panel to the left of the track)

Click "effect" and then "change pitch".



Remove vocal:

This is possible only for certain stereo tracks. When the vocals are exactly the same on both stereo channels, you can remove them by “subtracting” one channel from the other. This works for many studio recordings, where the vocal track is mixed exactly in the center. Be aware that bass and drums are usually panned to the center and can be removed or reduced also. Depending on how the track was mixed the vocal may only be reduced, not fully removed.



To do this in Audacity 1.2:



1. Import your stereo file into Audacity.

2. Open the track menu (click the arrow next to the track title), and choose “Split Stereo Track.”

3. Select the lower track (the right channel) by clicking it in the area around the mute/solo buttons.

4. Choose “Invert” from the Effects menu.

5. Using the track menus, change each track to “Mono.”



Press the Play button to hear the results. If you are lucky, the voice will be gone but most of the other instruments will be unaffected, just like a karaoke track. You can use the Export commands in the File menu to save the results.



Audacity 1.3:

Has a vocal remover built in. Just select the whole track then vocal remover from the effect menu.

In Mixcraft, click on the File menu, select "Render to..." and then "WAV." You should be able to load that into Audacity.

Instead of going from one program to another, just change the key with Audacity



Effect - Change Pitch
