Voice Remover

Most karaoke versions are re-recordings, and they rarely sound like the record you grew up with. Voice Remover lets you make your own backing track from the original song instead. Upload the song, and about half a minute later you have the real music without the voice, plus the vocals as a separate file. Singers use the instrumental to practise and to record covers over the music they actually know, then play their own take next to the original vocals to hear where the two differ. Students and teachers make backing tracks for school shows, recitals and rehearsals. Choir leaders take the voices out of a recording to make a practice track, or isolate the vocals to show the group how a line should be phrased. Producers start from the other half. The vocal isolator gives a clean acapella that is exactly as long as the song and starts at the same moment, so it lines up bar for bar. Set it over a new beat for a remix, cut it into phrases for a mashup, or just listen to every word clearly. Video creators and podcasters have the opposite problem: a song playing in a shop, a car or a café ends up under everything that was said. The background music remover keeps the voices and removes the music, so you can put in music you are allowed to use, make a transcript or subtitles, or level the speech in your editor. You get an audio file the same length as the video, ready to drop back under it. Everything runs in the browser on a computer, an iPhone or an Android phone. Full songs are free, 1 a day with no account or 2 when signed in, with no watermark. Results depend on the recording: a clean studio version separates best, while heavy echo or a live crowd can leave traces of the voice.
