_OK, somebody tell me why you can't take the output from one of those 'vocals

Those 'vocals removers' typically subtract the right from the left channel
(or vice versa).  That gives us:
(L+M/2)-(R+M/2) = L + M/2 - R - M/2 = L - R

Now, you want to subtract this from the original source (L+M+R):
(L+M+R) - (L-R) = L + M + R - L + R = M+2R
which is not what you intended...
