Multi-plex function removes background Too!

[S. Parks]

Apparently this is a Pop Hots Monthly thing again. Other lables that are multiplex work fine, but PHM removes background vocals and all. Anyone else experience this?

I may be wrong, but doesnt the PHM have one version with vocals and one without? If that is the case they are not multiplex. they put the vocals on both tracks or either run mono

[S. Parks]

you are right, they do, however a guy brought one to a show tht he had recorded with the w/ vocal version. he asked me to remove the vocals which I did, only to remove background vocals too. He ran off pissed, and I was embarassed. I'm just glad it's not on all multiplex recordings.

It wasnt for you to be embarrased. It was not recorded in multiplex. and it was made only to play with vocals on that version. it was the Customers fault. I'm sure if you wxplaind the difference, he would understand.

FYI: all players including the disc players wouldn't remove the vocals. Hoster plays the multiplex tracks the exact same way the players do. It shifts the right or left track to combination mono rather than stereo out. That was how a multiplex was meant to be. Pop hits monthly are not multiplex, and cant have the vocals removed.
