Extractune

Remove the vocals from a song or video

Upload a video with the song in it and Extractune separates the singing from everything else. Keep the instrumental for karaoke, a cover, or a backing track.

  2. 2 / 3

    Extract the audio

    One tap, right in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

  3. 3 / 3

    Tap Split audio

    Instrumental is picked for you when the split is done. Listen, trim, and download it as MP3, WAV or WebM.

Splits up to 5 minutes at a time (2 on browsers that can't use your graphics chip).

What people use it for

  • Sing along to a karaoke version of a song you love.
  • Record a cover over the original backing.

  • Hear what the band is playing underneath the vocal.

Questions

How do I remove the vocals from a song?

Upload a video with the song in it, extract the audio, then tap Split audio. Instrumental is picked for you when the split is done: listen, trim if you like, and download it as MP3, WAV or WebM.

Is the instrumental clean enough for karaoke?

On most well-mixed songs, yes. Faint traces of the voice can remain where it's very loud or drenched in reverb, so listen before you download. You can also download the vocals on their own to check what was taken out.

Is it free?

Yes. No sign-up and no watermark: upload a video, split it, and download the instrumental for free.

Does my video get uploaded?

No. The video, the extracted audio and the split all stay on your device: separating the parts runs in your browser, not on a server.

How long can the song be?

Videos can be up to 500MB. Splitting works on up to 5 minutes at a time (2 minutes on browsers that can't use your graphics chip), so trim a long video to the song first.

Why does the first split download something?

The separation engine runs on your device, so the first split saves it to your browser (about 172MB, once). Wi-Fi is recommended for that first time.
