Vocal Reductions Temp

Karaoke music often comes with background vocals that you may want to eliminate. If you ripped your music files from Multiplex discs, then vocal reduction is possible.

Under the Controls menu, there are three options available when playing a song.

Suppress Left Channel Vocal

Suppress Right Channel Vocal

Suppress Center Channel Vocal

When you suppress the Left or Right channel, kJams simply takes the opposite channel and duplicates it into the suppressed channel, effectively eliminating that channel. This is useful when there are vocals only in the target channel, such as with CD+GM discs (multiplex).

When you suppress the Center channel, kJams simply subtracts one channel from the other. Presuming the Vocal was mixed directly in the center, this will do a fair job at removing the vocal. However, this is not always the case. You'll have to try it on a case-by-case basis, as some songs will sound terrible using Center Channel Suppression.
