A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Good questions. Clear answers.

How do I remove background music from video?

Upload a video, sign in and choose a source scene and export format. The background job separates its tracks and replaces the video soundtrack with voice only. Preview and download the MP4 and audio tracks from this page or My processed files.

Can I remove the music and keep the voice?

Yes. Voice separation is designed to preserve speech and vocals while separating the background track. Results depend on the original recording: overlapping voices, loud music, and distortion can leave artifacts.

Does it work with audio files too?

Yes. Upload MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC or FLAC audio, or common video formats such as MP4, MOV and MKV, up to 2 GB. Export voice and background tracks as AAC, MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC.

Will my video look different?

The processing workflow replaces the audio track while retaining the original video content. The output is an MP4 file. Depending on the source format, the media service may re-encode the video.

How long does processing take?

Time depends on file length and service load. Keep the page open until the upload finishes and the task is queued. Voice separation and video assembly then continue in the background even if you close the page. Return to My processed files to check progress and download results before the temporary links expire, 30 days after generation.

Can I paste a YouTube link?

The link option supports direct HTTPS links to a video or audio file. It does not download media from YouTube or other streaming watch pages. Upload a file you have permission to use instead.

How are my files handled?

Your media is processed by a third-party model. An account is required to start processing, and task history is limited to its owner. Uploaded files are available for 30 days; processed results can be downloaded for 30 days after generation. See the privacy policy for details about file handling and temporary links.

Which scene should I choose? Does it remove noise?

Use Audio for speech recordings and Music for songs: both return voice and background tracks. Separation is not a dedicated wind, hiss or echo remover; results vary with the source.

Same clip. New soundtrack.

Keep the original speech, remove the background music and download a video ready for re-editing. Add your next soundtrack in your video editor.
