Hear the difference
A real live band, stripped one sound at a time.
Play the café clip, then switch between the original and the EraseSound results. One pass removed the singing voice, another removed the drums.

Describe
Type the music sound you hear. Concrete prompts like "singing voice" or "drum beat" work best.

What it can and cannot do
EraseSound separates the sound you describe from everything else in the recording. Music separates best when you name what you hear, a voice or an instrument, instead of asking for "background music". Here is what to expect.
Works well on
- Distinct music sounds such as a singing voice, a drum beat, or a piano
- Live music in a room, like the café demo above, where the rest of the scene stays
- Both audio files and the audio track of video files
- Short, concrete prompts such as "singing voice" or "drum beat"
Know before you start
- Vague prompts like "background music" separate poorly. Name the voice or instrument you hear.
- One sound at a time. A full band takes one pass per element: vocals first, then drums.
- Some music does not separate cleanly on the first try. Rewording the prompt, like "piano music" instead of "music", can help.
- Results vary between recordings, so listen to the free 30-second preview before buying minutes.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I remove music from a video and keep the voices?
EraseSound removes the sound you describe and keeps the rest. Describe the music you hear, like "singing voice" or "piano music", and the other sounds in the recording stay. The free preview lets you check the result on your own file before paying.
Why not just type "background music"?
Broad prompts give the AI too little to lock onto, and in our testing they separate poorly. Naming what you actually hear, "singing voice", "drum beat", "piano music", gives far more reliable results.
Is it free?
The 30-second preview is free, with up to 20 previews every 24 hours and no signup. Processing the full file uses paid minutes, starting at $4.99 for 10 minutes.
Do I need an account?
No. Previews need no signup, and one-time minute packs can be bought without an account. Only monthly plans ask you to sign in with Google.
What file formats are supported?
MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and MOV files up to 10 minutes and 1 GB. Results download as WAV or MP3, or as MP4 for video uploads.
How long does processing take?
A 30-second preview is usually ready in under a minute. A full file takes a few minutes, roughly 5 minutes for a 10-minute recording.
