no theyre stuck in there with all the instruments...but you can use a kareoke equaliser setting that attenuates them.

If you are in essence, trying to create an intstrumental track from a vocal track, good luck. Even with a karaoke equalizer, you're not going to do that.

A karoke equalizer is just an eq setting that attempts to filter out vocal frequencies. The problem is that vocals share many common frequencies with other instruments so when you attenuate vocals, you attenuate other parts of the mix as well. It's generally not a good result.

When you hear an instrumental version of a song, you're hearing a version from a multi-track recording where the vocal was simply muted during the mixing process. Once the vocal is in the stereo mix, it's damn near impossible to do much with it.
