"you can't remove vocals from music"

It is our understanding that if you BUY an Audio CD, you can do anything you want with it except give a copy of it to someone else. That includes if you vocal reduce the music, add lyrics (or not) and sing to it, you can do that but you can't let anyone else get a copy of it. You alone can use what you pay for.

Now, if THEY also buy the same Audio CD, then I see nothing wrong with your giving them a copy of what you did with the song(s), if you want to, as they could do the same with their purchased song(s).

You can use 8 seconds of a song without paying royalties... any 8 seconds is my understanding, not just the first 8.

Vogone 3.1 is coming along VERY NICELY!

We have a good "test" implementation of the HIGH filter in, and the LOW is being added right now. We are very pleased so far, and hope everyone else will be also.

Vogone 3.100 Beta 1 release is expected today or tomorrow at the latest.
