Isolate Vocals from a Song Online
Extract vocals from music tracks for remixes, covers, transcription, and analysis. Use only on music you have the right to.
AI-based source separation can pull a vocal track out of a finished mix — great for remixes, covers, karaoke prep, or transcribing lyrics. Media Manipulator runs the separation on our own GPU server. The result is a single vocal stem you can download and use anywhere — as long as you have the right to do so for your source material.

Run AI separation
Local GPU model splits vocals from the rest of the mix.

Advanced details
- Source separation is inherently imperfect — reverb, harmonies, and heavy effects bleed into the output.
- WAV output preserves the most detail, especially for further editing in a DAW.
- For karaoke (instrumental only), use the dedicated "Remove Vocals" mode in the audio converter instead.

Frequently asked questions
Is this fully clean separation?
No source separation tool is perfect. Expect some artifacts, especially around heavy reverb and harmonies. WAV output gives the most material to clean up afterward in a DAW.
What audio formats are supported?
WAV, MP3, FLAC, M4A/AAC, OGG, OPUS, and most other common audio formats.
Can I use this on copyrighted music?
Only if you own the rights, have a license, or are operating under fair use in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for how you use the output.
Where can I get just the instrumental?
Use the "Remove Vocals" AI mode in the audio converter — same upload, different output.
