Figured I'd post my Audacity related question here... Trying to rip some backing tracks out of songs, but when I do it I'm still getting faint audio. Not sure if there's a way to fix it - may be s.o.l. - but thought I'd ask before I give up.

For my first one, a test, I took MF DOOM's "Rapp Snitch Knishes", split the stereo track, inverted the right (bottom) track, set both to mono, exported to mp3 (merges tracks to one), opened it back up and used the 'amplify' effect to reduce the dB to -5.0... and yet, still can hear faint vocals playing in the final project.

Any other tricks?

And you're surrounded by the ones you blah
Death shows up... anddd blah, blah, blah.
