Choose the phrase you want to learn
Upload a recording you have permission to process. Select a passage where the guitar and the other sounds overlap, so the preview tests the part you actually need.
Describe the guitar
Start with "guitar", the description used in this demo. Listen for the pick attack, chord changes, and notes that ring out after the singing starts.
Keep the guitar result
Compare A and B separately. Leave only the result containing the guitar audible, then process the full file. Download audio, or a video with the selected soundtrack, to review the part.
Focus on a guitar part by ear
Separating the guitar can make a phrase easier to follow when singing draws your attention away. Compare with the original recording before deciding what was played: separation can change a note or hide part of a chord. If you have the original guitar track in an editing project, use that track first.
Works well on
- The acoustic guitar and singing example demonstrated above
- Listening back to a short phrase while learning a part by ear
- Comparing the separated guitar with the original mix
- Working from an audio file or a performance video in the same tool
Know before you start
- This is one acoustic performance, not a quality guarantee for a full band or distorted electric guitar.
- Singing or other instruments may remain. Check for missing notes, softened attacks, and changes to the guitar tone.
- Several guitars playing together may stay together; a description does not guarantee separation of lead and rhythm.
- The result is a separated mix, not the original studio guitar track. It does not create tabs, chords, or sheet music.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I isolate guitar from a song or video?
Upload your audio or video, choose a short passage, and describe "guitar". Compare the two preview results and keep the one containing the guitar. If it is useful, process the full file and download your selected result.
Does the demo remove all the singing?
The demo shows the guitar extracted from one acoustic performance with singing. Switch between Original and Guitar to judge the voice that remains and any changes to the instrument. Your recording may separate differently.
Can I use this to learn a guitar part by ear?
You can listen to the extracted part alongside the original to work out a phrase. Check notes and timing against the original, because separation can lose detail. EraseSound does not generate tabs, identify chords, or change playback speed.
Will it isolate electric guitar or separate lead from rhythm?
You can try the free preview, but the acoustic demo does not establish that result. Distortion, effects, overlapping instruments, or multiple guitars can make separation harder. Listen to a busy section before deciding to process the full recording.
Is guitar isolation the same as removing vocals?
Guitar isolation targets the guitar. Removing vocals keeps the rest of the accompaniment, which can also contain drums, bass, and other instruments. Choose the target based on what you want to hear. Compare vocal removal.
Can I paste a YouTube link?
The tool accepts uploaded files, not YouTube URLs. Use an audio or video file you have permission to process. Separating a guitar does not grant permission to redistribute the recording.
Which files can I upload and download?
Upload MP3, WAV, or M4A audio, or MP4 or MOV video, up to 10 minutes and 1 GB. After full-file processing, download WAV or MP3 audio, or MP4 with your chosen result for a video upload.
Is the guitar preview free?
The 30-second preview is free without signup, with up to 20 previews every 24 hours. Full-file processing uses paid minutes, starting at $4.99 for 10 minutes.
