This is cool. I've always wanted to have technology like this so I could remove the cheesy 70s keyboard from Broken Promises by Resurrection Band. It would remove the one negative from one of the greatest Christian Rock songs of all time.

Boray wrote:Now how did I make these? In the recording software I use (Reaper) there is an effect called ReaFir. Among other things, it can record a frequency curve and then subtract this curve from the sound. The purpose of this is to remove noise from recordings, but I just used it to remove drums instead. For this to work you need the thing you want to remove to play by itself somewhere in the song to be able to record its frequency curve. So these two songs starting with drums was perfect for this experiment.

I also time stretched the drums to fit in the other song...
Reaper 4 is coming soon. Some cool changes. I have been using the public beta. When they get a couple of things under control, I will use it on a mobile system.

Doesn't sound like a very legal project though. I didn't post the whole song to not break the copyright laws TOO much...
Well heck, I'd be happy just to hear some partial song samples of how it could sound if they did remix TMW that way.
I made a little attempt for you:

Thank you for doing that. It sounds cool. It would be wonderful if someday they really did a remix of that album.

I don't dislike the Elefante sound. I just happen to prefer the more natural sound of albums like Wake Up Call and the stuff produced by Johnathan David Brown.
