Way to minimize background music in song?

I was wondering if there was a way within fairlight to lower the volume of the background music of a song file so I can emphasize the singer's voice?

If you have all the original audio stems, sure.

If you don't...

Fairlight can't do that. You can try "Music Rebalance" which is a part of Izotope RX. I believe they have a demo.

Yes U can do this, watch this videoHERE

I think that's not what the TO is asking for.
Changing the intensity of a singer vs the background in the same recording is far more complicated.

Generally cases like this are pretty hopeless. You could try investing in iZotope RX, and that can be used to extract dialog to a point, but there's always going to be artifacts and issues, because the level and EQ and compression constantly change. I use iZotope in standalone mode and then bring the track into Resolve (or ProTools if I'm using that). You can check out some demos of iZotope at this link:

There's also a plugin from Leapwing that can do that, I think it's called CenterOne. They may have a demo version you can try before you buy.

Essentially all of this tools (including Izotope last I checked) do a M/S separation and then treat the mid separately, with more sophisticated methods to isolate the vocal component without bringing up the bass, snare and other center panned instruments.

Awesome, thanks for all you're help/suggestions everyone. I'll see what I can work out
