Background Music Remover
Take the music out from under a podcast, a stream replay or an interview and keep what people said. Voice, music and other sounds come back as separate tracks.
How it works
Remove background music from audio in three steps
1Step 1
Upload the recording
An episode, a stream replay or an interview, as audio up to 50 MB or video up to 250 MB. Each file can run up to 12 minutes; split longer recordings into parts.
2Step 2
Separate the music
Processing splits the sound into the voice, the background music and the other sounds of the recording.
3Step 3
Download the voice
The music starts muted. Check the result, then download the voice as MP3 or WAV, or export the mix with the other sounds kept.
What you can do
Remove music from audio, keep every word
Music under a conversation is hard to edit around. Put it on a track of its own and decide what the final recording keeps.
Keep the voice, mute the music
Speech gets its own track, separate from the music playing underneath. The result opens with the music muted, so you hear the conversation in place, at its original timing, with nothing to line up afterwards. Solo the voice to check the quietest words, or switch to the original recording to compare what was taken out.
Remove background music from audio recordings
An intro bed that runs under the talking, a song playing during a stream, music in the café where you recorded an interview: the same separation handles each of them. Upload MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, M4A or OGG up to 50 MB and 12 minutes, and split a longer episode into parts before you start.
Keep or drop the other sounds
Laughter, applause and room sound land on an Other sounds track, separate from both the voice and the music. Leave it on for a recording that still sounds like the place it was made in, lower it in the mixer, or mute it for a voice-only file that is easier to transcribe or edit.
Download the voice for your editor
Download each track as MP3 or WAV and keep editing in your own software, for example to put new music under the voice. The format is the one you chose before processing; WAV costs twice the credits of MP3. A mix exported from the mixer is saved as WAV, with the music muted or turned down as you set it.
Upload a video, export it without the music
Stream replays and recorded lessons often start as video. Upload an MP4, MOV or WebM file up to 250 MB; its soundtrack is prepared in your browser before processing. Right after processing, while the page is still open, export the video without the music, or add a new audio file under the voice and set its volume.

FAQ
Background music remover questions
Upload the recording and start processing. The result opens with the background music muted, so you hear the voice and the other sounds. Mute Other sounds as well if you only want the voice, then download it as MP3 or WAV, or export the mix you hear.
The voice keeps its timing and most of its sound. Where the music is very loud or shares the same range as the voice, traces of music can remain or quiet syllables can lose some detail. Listen to the loudest musical passages before you publish the result.
They go to the Other sounds track, separate from the voice and the music. Keep that track on for a natural-sounding recording, lower it, or mute it for a voice-only file.
