Re: Music tracks minus drums...
You can take vocals out usually by cutting the midrange a lot...I think my fourth grade music teacher had a tape player with a switch to cut vocals, but basically I think it just cut out the mids...for drums I don't see how you would take them out of a normal CD, there's just too many frequencies there, bass, cymbals, snare, there's no way to EQ it out. Unless the drums were very processed to begin with and you had a super duper gazillion band graphic EQ.
I downloaded a couple of drumless Rush tunes...It would be nice if they put a click on it. Even with big headphones it's hard to get any feedback from the song, acoustic drums are just too loud! I guess you just have to synch your own click to it in Cakewalk or something.
