Hubert,

You have a lot of options.  There are dozens and dozens of software
applications that will do that.  Some are free and open source and
some you pay for.  If you have a cd burning software now, there is a
good chance you can do it already.  Just search google for how to
remove vocals from a cd and you will a lot of options.

Hi folks,
Does anyone know of any software that can be used to separate the
instrumental from the vocals on CDs for burning to a CD etc ?   Some
blues songs in particular have great instrumentals but less than
pleasant lyrics.   As a result I don't play them with some of my
family & friends.   If I can convert these to an instrumental version,
I won't totally miss out.

As an after thought, wouldn't it be great if an instrumental version
of CDs were included, like a bonus CD/DVD you see often these days.
No extra recording is required, just leave out the vocals in the mix,
so the cost would be minimal.    Could be a large market here to
improve on the usual instrumental elevator music around the place.

Cheers,  Hubert
