Amazng VST for making Acapellas
« Thread Started on Oct 22, 2009, 1:21pm »
Ok i know the title sounds sketchy considering that like 99.9 percent of vsts made for making acapellas and instrumentals suck 8===>, but i just found one that blew my mind, i mean blew my freakin mind. Basically i dled a vst pack torrent thing yesterday and found this vst called Extra Boy Pro, and in the description it said that this program is made for removing instruments or vocals from a mix. So i tryed it out. And it blew my mind, its so utterly simple, theres like 5 sliders, and you probably will never move them because there presets are good enough. Now dont get me wrong, this isnt gonna give you a perfect diy acapella, but it will give you a decent one and with a little bit of work you can make it perfect. Basically it will give you a nice start if you plan to make an acapella, and sometimes you may not need to do any extra work on a few occasions. But it certainly saves time in the process of making acapellas. Usually it will give you a pella where the only work you need to do after is a little noise reduction and its perfect. Ive tried like 25 songs already and havent seen a negative result yet. Each time it gives at least something you can work with, with a little noise reduction. And you can also use another plugin in combination that can eliminate a little extra noise called Spectral Gate, but sometimes it can make the mix worse. But basically add in spectral gate and turn up the attack and release to your liking if necessary. Anyways long story short this vst is amazing and cuts a lot of time out of making acapellas. And im assuming that i can post links to them considering that mashups are an illegal art anyway, so i went ahead and uploaded them, but be sure to read the nfos and readmes so you dont post back asking where the keys are. So here are the links (i uploaded these myself so there should be no viruses).

P.S. Im sorry i made this message so long, i was just trying to explain that this is something that is an aid in the acapella making process not the whole thing, except on a few occasions.

EDIT: Here is a tutorial for noise reduction which is what you should do after you make your pella in extra boy

pretty much just skip to step 4 and start from there, considering we already have a great start from extra boy
