How can you tell where the vocals are? Just listen in good-quality headphones. If the vocals seem to be coming out of both channels simultaneously, they’re mixed in the center. If not, they’re to the side that you hear the vocals coming from. Some styles of music and specific recordings will have different balances between channels. If the vocals are shifted to one channel or the other instead of “centered,” it’s much easier to remove them. Songs with a lot of effects may be quite difficult to separate and invert. There may be a little echo of the vocals that will be difficult to remove.

You should still be able to hear vocals some, but don’t worry. You’ll complete the effect when you bounce it back to mono.

With an equalizer, you’ll usually just open the audio equalizer software and play the music file you want to edit. The audio equalizer will remove of the audio tracks automatically.
The efficiency of this as a technique is pretty debatable. It may theoretically work, but it’s not a way to save a song file without vocals.
Where the black wire was connected, connect the red wire, and move the red wire to the black wire’s terminal. Many modern stereo systems and head phones do not allow you to swap wires on the back of one speaker. Sometimes the wires are bundled into one wire sleeve. The only way to swap the bundled wires is to splice them or re-solder the connector.
If your stereo or app has one of these, then just press it and the Lead Vocals will get very soft or disappear.
Flipping phase really affects Bass waves. So the Bass might disappear along with the Lead Vocals. Digital DSP Karaoke systems will fix this by flipping the phase on only the Vocal frequencies. Try adjusting the levels on your stereo to get it to sound correct. Sophisticated vocal removal systems or software allow you to decide which frequencies get flipped out of phase.
