Karaoke and instrumental tracks
Remove the vocal layer from a music clip to create a clean instrumental background. Perfect for karaoke videos, cover song projects, or background music where the original vocals are unnecessary.
AI Audio Separation
Split songs,Controls for both.
Split any audio track into vocals and instrumentals with just a tap.
- Two fully independent tracks: vocals and music
- All processing is done on-device. Your audio stays on your phone or tablet
- Non-destructive. Your original clip stays intact
What it does
Two tracks from one audio clip
A single audio clip mixes vocals and instruments together, making it impossible to adjust one without affecting the other. Vocal Separation changes that. The AI analyzes the audio track and outputs two separate tracks: one containing the vocals, the other containing the instrumental music.
Before: Full audio
is on one track.
Vocals and instruments are combined. Audio changes to the track affect both.
After: Separated tracks
Two tracks for independent control.
Vocal track and music track land separately on the timeline. Adjust, mute, or apply effects to one or the other.
- Separates vocals and background music into two independent tracks
- Works with any audio or video clip
- All processing happens on-device. Your audio never leaves your phone or tablet
- Each track is independently editable after Vocal Separator is applied.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about clip compatibility, on-device processing, and how Vocal Separation works.
What types of clips does Vocal Separation work on?
Vocal Separation works on any audio track and any video clip that contains audio: music tracks, voiceover recordings, and video clips with embedded sound.
Is the processing done on-device?
Yes. All processing happens on-device. Your audio is never uploaded or transmitted to an external server.
Can I apply effects to each separated track independently?
Yes — after separation, both the vocal track and the music track appear as standard audio layers. You can use the Mixer to change the volume, pitch, or panning, EQ, Reverb, or any other audio tool to each track independently.
Is Vocal Separation non-destructive?
Yes. Vocal Separation creates two new output tracks. The original clip remains unchanged (as a muted audio layer) and can be restored at any time.
