You beat me to it. There’s a jazz track that I NEED to find out what the name is, but the usual suspects don’t have it in their database. Of course, the YT rip doesn’t have track IDs!

So there’s a jazz tune on YT with no song or artist ID? If you can post it here I’ll see if I can ID it for you.

Edit:

I misread the OP. I'm not sure how to isolate tracks on the downloaded audio files.

A bit of background before you go on a wild goose chase for this random dude: My granddaughter currently plays French horn in middle school band, but she’s thinking about switching to tenor sax. I was playing this compilation over the weekend and she really liked this tune starting at the 28:40 mark. I’d be much obliged if you recognize this:

Unfortunately it’s smooth jazz and it could literally be anyone. Tried SoundHound and it could not ID the song. Thought I would try.

This is kind of crude, but if you have a windows pc, open up the youtube video. Scroll over to whatever timestamp you want to start recording. Hit the windows key + G. a capture box should come up. start the video. Hit record on the capture box. hit stop on the YT video whenever you want. It will save it to videos/captures.

I already have the ability to rip a video and edit in movie maker. What I am looking for is a program that will break out all the tracks, separate drums from bass from guitar from vocals and isolate them.

The guy at the recording studio that I use sometimes, has a program for this.
It's a pretty common program at studios. I've had him use it for me to remove parts of old demos. I don't remember the name of the program, but you can probably stop by any decent pro studio and ask what the name is.

Thanks anyway! I like smooth jazz, but you’re right in that it could be ANYONE. Her consolation prize is that she gets to listen to my Coltrane collection now!

Have you looked at some of the AI plugins for Audacity?

I have not. I haven't used it since getting Reaper last year.

I'll just swing by Rick Beato's house down 78 in Stone Mountain and knock on his door and ask him.

There's a recording studio near you, maybe you just don't know about it yet.
There are a handful around here and I live by the boondocks. Ask around at your local music store.
