Play Along software, all instruments + voice

Does anyone know a software where I can play along the bass, see the tab and sheet and also hear all the instruments, including the voice?
Would be nice if there is a possibility to control the instruments volume to filter out the bass more.
 
I haven't found one. It would be very hard to do without access to recordings with every track ready to mix with sliders.

I do, however, practice all the time with the bass mostly EQed out. I also practice to karaoke tracks on YouTube when I'm singing a song.

Youtube is what I use now ;-) , if I can find the songs with a bass tab It does work for me, not all songs are there though ...

Excluding the voice, there is Band in a Box and - on iOS there is iReal.There were books with CDs in the past for bassplayers with special songs or songs from just one band in two versions: with and without bass.
If you're looking for single tracks, look for multichannel recordings on downloading platforms. I never tried it, but there was a very prominent game a decade or so ago where people could play along to songs. These games had original multitrack recordings of tracks. Don't remember the name.
