YoGen Vocal Remover

YoGen Vocal Remover is a very simple-to-use piece of software designed to help you remove vocals from songs, in order to prepare them for karaoke nights, for example.
It does not come equipped with complex options, making it accessible to all kinds of users, even those with little or no experience in audio processing utilities.

Hassle-free installation and user-friendly interface

The setup procedure takes little time to finish and does not require special configuration. As far as the interface goes, YoGen Vocal Remover is wrapped in a small window with a plain and simple structure.

Easily adjust settings and save the new file with removed vocals

The supported audio formats are MP3, WAV and WMA. A file can be imported using either the file browser or drag-and-drop method. So, all you have to do is adjust the bass boost level from the control panel in the preferences area (upper left corner of the screen) and preview the song with removed vocals, as well as specify the output directory and file name.
In terms of general configuration, it is possible to make the frame stay on top of other windows, as well as to use the same folder as the source or a custom one for all saves instead of prompting the user.

Evaluation and conclusion

Worth mentioning is that all new files are saved to the WAV format, regardless of the source track's extension. YoGen Vocal Remover does not exactly remove the vocals but lowers their volume while increasing the one of the instrumentals.
The tool does not put a strain on PC performance, since it runs on a low quantity of CPU and RAM. It quickly saves the new file. We have not come across any problems in our tests, since it did not hang, crash or pop up error messages.
YoGen Vocal Remover does not sport advanced settings and it does not really get rid of the vocals. When taking this into account, the price seems too expensive.
