On the quick my guess is


Original left  channel + inverted right channel = plain_left
Original right channel + inverted left  channel = plain_right


Original left  channel + inverted plain_left    = middle only
Original right channel + inverted plain_right   = middle only
...
That sounds good. Unforunately it didn't work.

I went down that road once before.

"Plain" channels:

a = l - r ("side" in mid/side)
b = r - l

Then l - a = l - (l - r) = r and r - b = r - (r - l) = l, neither of which isolates the center.


The idea of the karaoke effect is to cut in-phase material that is in common between the channels (e.g. often lead vocals). You'd think you can do the karaoke effect and then some subtraction would leave you with "whatever is not the karaoke effect," but in fact, variables cancel out in a way that you don't get anything useful. This might be the reason why you don't find a lot of plugins for this.
