Lead vocal suppression of stereo audio files

Many commercial CD, VCD and DVD players have vocal mute feature for Karaoke purposes. However, most commercial systems obtain the output by subtracting the right channel from the left channel. This simple technique however has many drawbacks and does not work in all cases. Most notably when the voic...
