Hey so I have two audio clips. One is from a video with background music added in later that I can't seem to remove and the other is said background music. Is there any way to use the background music as a guide for the program to remove the same music from the video's audio?

Thanks so much

    Hello Katherine,

    From the information I was able to find, the primary tool in Audition that you would use is called Center Channel Extractor - Which is found in "Effects/Studio Imagery/Center Channel Extractor -

    I am currently not able to post links in my forum posts. If you do a search for Center Channel Extractor on the Forum search you will find more information - Also I did see several video tutorials on this topic in an internet search.

    The process is not without problems as once the audio is combined into a single track file, the extraction process is purely digital and is not a complete isolation or extraction of the specific audio you wish to remove.

    There is also a tool or effect that can be used called Noise and Sound Remover in the same Effects list -

    Be Blessed!!!

      The actual path is Effects>Stereo Imagery>Center Channel Extractor. To work it relies on the voice being in the centre of the stereo image, and the music being elsewhere in the stereo field. Any music in the centre, and any stereo reverb applied to the voice, will remain whatever you do.
