This is correct. It is a shame there are no music players that can do this natively. I have to do every track I wish to play along with by hand in Audacity (or if I'm using my Win2K laptop, Cool Edit Pro 2000.)

Alternatively (in theory, anyways,) you can do a spectral analysis, create a selection/range of frequencies to invert, and that can usually handle isolating individual instruments regardless of stereo isolation as long as the other instrument octave ranges do not overlap with the one you're isolating. I'd love a music player that could do that.
