Technical issues.

Editing is all going well on the video side of things. I now have plenty of footage so it's not just cutting it down and editing together. However, on the audio side of things I am having some problems. I have chosen a song which I feel will be really good for the edit, but I do not think it is going to be long enough. I have seen similar edits where the makers have had similar problems and they have removed the lyrics, and looped some of the instrumental segments to make up some extra time.

I have researched all over the Internet on how to remove the lyrics from the song, and have had no successive results yet. Many of the tutorials are using Audacity, but when I tried with Audacity I still have traces of lyrics left and am left with really bad sound quality. I have also searched high and low for a pre-existing instrumental version of the track and am having no luck with that either.

I have a technical lesson on Thursday morning where I will speak to Joe Darlow, the media technician to see if he can offer me any advice.
