Frequently asked questions
How clean is the vocal removal?
AI separates the lead vocal from the instrumental backing. Works best for studio recordings with clear vocal mixing. Heavily processed vocals, harmonies, or live recordings with bleed may leave faint traces — quality scales with the original mix.
Can this remove a voice from a video but keep the background music?
Yes. That is the main use case for this page. Upload a video, let the AI separate vocals from the instrumental, then click 'Karaoke Video' to create an MP4 with the original picture and music but without the lead voice.
Can I make a karaoke video from a YouTube music video?
Yes. Download the source video first via a phone screen recorder or third-party downloader, then upload it here. After separation, click 'Karaoke Video' to generate a finished MP4 with the picture intact and vocals removed.
What if I want to remove the music and keep the voice instead?
Use remove music from video for the opposite workflow. That page is designed for vlogs, interviews, tutorials, and podcast clips where you want to keep narration or dialogue and remove background music.
Can I use this to redub a short video with my own voice?
Yes. After separation, download the 'Silent Video' file (original picture, no audio) and add your own narration track in any video editor. Or use the 'Voice-Only Video' button to keep the original speaker, or 'Karaoke Video' to keep the music and add your voice later.
Does it work for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts?
Yes — short-form videos from TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts all work. Save the clip to your device first, then upload here. Most short clips finish in under a minute.
What's the difference between the 'Karaoke Video' and 'Voice-Only Video' buttons?
'Karaoke Video' = original picture + instrumental music (vocals removed) — great for singing along or replacing the voice. 'Voice-Only Video' = original picture + lead vocals only (music removed) — great for isolating dialogue or studying a vocal performance.
Can I use an audio file instead of a video?
This page is for video files. If you only have MP3, WAV, or another audio file, use the AI vocal remover for vocals + instrumental, or AI stem splitter if you need drums, bass, guitar, piano, and other stems.
Do I lose video quality?
No. The video stream is copied through without re-encoding — same resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. Only the audio is rebuilt as AAC inside an MP4 container.
How long does processing take?
Fast mode runs a single model in about 40 seconds for a typical 3-4 minute clip. Studio mode runs a fine-tuned ensemble in 2-3 minutes for the cleanest separation. Longer videos scale with duration.
What about copyright?
We process the audio you upload; what you do with the output is on you. Karaoke use of copyrighted material is allowed in some contexts (private singing, fair-use commentary) and restricted in others (re-uploading to public platforms). Check your local rules before publishing.
Is there a free tier?
Yes. Free starter credits on sign-up cover several short videos. Heavy users can buy credit packs or subscribe to Pro for daily credits — both are one-time payments with no auto-renewal.
