The following article will guide you through the basic steps for removing vocals or an instrument:
-
To find the part that you want to eliminate, lower the "INSIDE LEVEL" slider to reduce the volume of the sound inside the red frame.
NOTE: The volume of the sound is indicated by color. The color will appear as follows according to the volume:
Black (quietest) ... Blue ... Green ... Yellow ... Red ... White (loudest) -
By dragging the red frame, move it to the location at which you no longer hear the part that you want to subtract--or to a point where the majority of the part is no longer heard.
-
You can use the SHAPE to switch the frame between a rectangle or a circle and drag the edge of the frame to adjust size. The choice of shape and size will be a combination of listening to the difference each makes and looking at the R-MIX grid for the hottest points in white, red and yellow.
NOTE: If you make the shape too large, other parts will also become inaudible.
ADDITIONAL NOTE: R-MIX analyzes the imported music according to frequency, panning (left to right) and volume. For some songs, the frequency or panning of the musical parts are indistinct--due to how the song was mixed by the sound engineer (e.g. the vocals might have a lot of effects all over the mix). Because of this, you might not obtain the results you expect from all songs.
