Any other plug-ins that offer this capability? I don't have Audition, but am intrigued by the possibility of a dedicated plug to extract center-field material such as vocals from a mix. Has anyone used this in Audition 1.5, and how good are the results? Sound Forge has a convoluted way to achieve a similar end, albeit with mediocre results...

Well... if the hamburgers are rare enough, you should be able to extract some DNA and you're on your way to a fresh cow. So there.undercore wrote:someones words but removing reverb...
"can you recreate a cow from the hamburgers?"

Surprisingly good in Audition (you get several possibilities including boosting and cutting levels). Results ok and certainly fun

You don't need Audition, this can be done within VST's also. Have a look at the free MSTools. They convert left-right to mid-spread and back. You can do all sorts of stuff in between.
Have fun!
Have fun!

ok? maybe, fun? possibly, useful? hardly, however none will be perfect. Don't take this as a dis on AA, I love it...for me it's my multi-tracker and FL is my sequencer. AA's pitch correction, noise reduction, vst support and myriad of tools are amazing, but the vocal extractor would not be a selling point for me that's for sure. But I want for nothing with the combo of FL/AA/Vsampler3/B4...headquest wrote:Surprisingly good in Audition (you get several possibilities including boosting and cutting levels).

There is interesting stuff to do with this technique, like leave the center signal pass through and feed the spread signal through a modulation effect (chorus, phaser...) and reconstruct it to be a stereo signal again. So all kinda exciting things happen to the stereo signal while leaving the center-part alone.

Hmmm...now that DOES sound fun! Thanks for giving me some more crazy ideas to experiment with

I like the frequency band splitter that has always been there...very cool feature...similar idea but gives you the ability to put fx on up to 8 different frequencies of one wave, then bounce it backdown to one stereo wave...
