Problem With Registering

To Whom is reading this letter:
Hi, I have just finished downloading your version of Napster on to my computer V2.0 Beta 7 and i have a problem.
When i double click on the Napster icon, a dialog box comes up and states to me that an error has occured while trying to send my registration information to the napster server.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks for your time.

Re: Problem With Registering

A few Napster users have been experiencing this problem very
recently. As this version of Napster has been available for some
time, it would appear to be a problem with the Napster server rather
than the software itself.

Be patient and hope that Napster resolves the issue soon. You may
like to contact them with details of the error message.

Sorry

Sorry about that, but for some reason I had to sign up for another account. If anyone can send me Toast 4 and any other software that came with Toast, that would be great.

Re: Sorry

Nick, Toast is not Freeware. Anyone with a legitimate copy of Toast in their possession would
have paid for it.

Try <a href="http://www.liquidaudio.com/downloads/liqplayer/index.html">Liquid Player for Macintosh</a> (Free Download) - Stream, download, playback and burn to CD all in one player.

: Sorry about that, but for some reason I had to sign up for another account. If anyone can send me Toast 4 and any other software that came with Toast, that would be great.

Re: Sorry

I tryed that but it does not seem to be compatible with a QPS! burner. So if any one has a QPS! burner and does not mind sending me a copy of the toast installer. That would be great!!!!

how do u make an acapella??????

plllllleeeeeeaaaaasssseeee!!!!!! if anyone knows how to make acapella out of a song please tell me what program!!!!!!! an acapella is where u take the music out of a song and only have the words!

Re: how do u make an acapella??????

Try search under: "a capella net"

: plllllleeeeeeaaaaasssseeee!!!!!! if anyone knows how to make acapella out of a song please tell me what program!!!!!!! an acapella is where u take the music out of a song and only have the words!

WRONG! a capella is where you take the external instrumental sounds away and only have music

Re: how do u make an acapella??????

okay, a lot of people are getting this wrong

:WRONG! a capella is where you take the external instrumental sounds away and only have music

no sir, that is wrong, what you explained is an "Instrumental" track, "a capella" is a foreign word which means something to the effect of just voice, it is just the voice, not just the instruments, please plase get that right

Re: how do u make an acapella??????

Here's how to _REMOVE_ vocals (i am trying to figure out how to do the opposite; leaving only vocals):

It's called phase cancellation.
You record the source track into Cool Edit, Sound Forge, whatever.
Invert one of the channels(L or R) (put it out of phase).
Mix down the two to a mono file, and voila! no vocals.

The reason this works is vocal tracks are most often recorded in mono, whereas the other tracks are usually stereo. By inverting, and then re-combining the two sides, you're analog-ly eliminating any perfectly identical frequencies (which a mono track is an example of) by "phasing them out". don't listen to people who tell you things are impossible. nothing is impossible.
except figuring out how to subtract the resultant, no-vocal file's frequencies dynamically along time to LEAVE only vocals. I'll post that if i figure it out.

+a+e

Any more questions?

Softwares to extract vocals or music = 0(none)

: plllllleeeeeeaaaaasssseeee!!!!!! if anyone knows how to make acapella out of a song please tell me what program!!!!!!! an acapella is where u take the music out of a song and only have the words!

Re: how do u make an acapella??????

I'm afraid you won't find any software that can do that due to the fact that the vocals will often occupy the same frequencies as the instruments.

Re: how do u make an acapella??????

you cant "make" an acapella out of a normal track. Its impossible. There are several things you can do though... You can buy "rippable" tracks that you can take apart if you have the right equipment, or buy the acapella, or write to the record company. I dont think there's an easier way because people dont like you sampling their vocals without permission (copyright etc).

Re: how do u make an acapella?????? ( I DID IT)

hey guys i think i figured out how to make an acapella.....
i tried doing the 'phase cancellation' method that kerry posted....and i accidently did someting wrong i dont know......but anyway it made the music go funny but the words of the song remained normal with the music only being just barely heard.
if u want to know how i did this drop me an e-mail and send an $20 check to 'Mikhail Magpayo" hehehehe
