How it works
- Upload the song (MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, OGG or AAC).
- Wait while the vocals and instrumental are separated.
- Play the Instrumental track to check it, then download it as MP3.
- Keep the Vocals track too if you want a guide to practice phrasing.
What you get — and what you don't
The result is an audio backing track: the full song with the lead vocal removed. It does not include on-screen lyrics or a video. If you need a lyric video, load the instrumental into a karaoke player or video editor that supports timed lyrics.
Background vocals are often removed together with the lead vocal, because the model treats every singing voice as “vocals”. Songs where the backing vocals are part of the arrangement may sound a little emptier in the chorus.
Getting a cleaner karaoke track
Separation quality depends mostly on the source file:
- Use the highest-quality file you have. A 320 kbps MP3 or a WAV separates more cleanly than a low-bitrate copy.
- Avoid recordings of recordings (phone recordings of speakers, live videos). Room echo gets baked into both tracks.
- Heavily processed vocals — lots of reverb, delay or vocal chops — can leave faint traces in the instrumental. That's normal for any vocal remover.
Changing the key
If the original is too high or too low for your voice, download the instrumental and change the pitch in a free editor such as Audacity (Effect → Pitch and Tempo → Change Pitch). Shifting by one or two semitones usually sounds natural; larger shifts start to sound processed.
