Vocal Canceler
When a stereo source is being input from CD or DAT and so on, this cancels the sound which is located in the
stereo center, such as the vocal or bass.

Input R
Depending on the music source, sounds that you do not wish to be canceled may be canceled as well. In
particular if the musical source has heavy reverb or if the sound that you wish to delete is not located in the
center, the vocal canceler may not produce the desired result.
Canceling the vocals alone
Vocal Canceler cancels the sound located in the center. That means it cancels sounds such as the bass and sounds
of the lead instrument along with vocal sounds. To cancel vocals only to create music for karaoke, for example,
set Range Lo to around 100 Hz and Range Hi to around 1 kHz.
