How to remove vocal from a sound track prefereably mp3

Question

Did anyone ever tried or worked on an app that removes vocal data from the mp3 file leaving the midi/the background music track.

Is there any open source lib for that to accomplish and how far this is attainable.

Appreciate the ideas if any.

Thanks In Advance

Try Audacity. I believe it has a feature that attempts to do just that. Not sure how effective it is.

I'm not aware of an open source java library to do this, I think you'll have to look at the source and convert it. – Bjorn Roche Feb 13 '13 at 15:03

it's a late answer, but have you ever tried a hardware solution for this. simply use a capacitor filtering attached to speaker-jack to block human-voice level frequencies. and then re-record the output using mic input.
