How to Remove Vocals from a Song Without Software

For years, I thought it was impossible to cleanly extract vocals from a song. Apparently AI researchers disagreed. They've created methods to isolate vocals that literally blows my mind. And it doesn't require any downloads or software.

Lalal.ai is a simple, straight forward tool that lets you separate the backing music track from the vocals. Best of all, you can process your first 3 songs for free! Simply drag and drop the full song on to their webpage, wait a minute for it to process, and you'll have access to 2 new audio files: one that has only the vocals, and the other that has only the instruments.

You would think it would sound artificial, but you'd be wrong. Check out the video below to hear how amazing the isolated vocals sound. It's almost perfectly clean. And it sounds like it works just as well separating rap vocals from a background beat.

So whether you're looking to isolate vocals so you can chop them up, remove vocals from a beat so that you can sample it, or just looking for some karoke backing tracks, check out Lalal.ai to get started, for free!

How would you use a tool like this? Remixes? Sampling? Something else? What other cool types of AI-driven processing would you like to see? Let me know in the comments!

And once you've isolated your vocals, it's time to turn them up to 11. Here are the greatest vocal plugins available.

From a Frustrated Producer in a Ragtag Bedroom Studio to Major Placements on TV Earning $1,000s!

My name is Evan, and I've been making music since around 3rd grade. I'm from San Diego, California, but I've lived in Washington, DC for the last 20 years.

After 3 grueling years of grad school, though I had put aside serious attempts at making music. I found myself spending my days doing work that was dreadfully uncreative, with a ton of student student loan debt.

Which made me feel like my favorite parts of myself were withering.

But I didn't know what to do about it.

Being in my early 30s with tons of student loan debt, in a world where there is "no money in music," I felt like my youthful dreams of trying to "make it big" were dead. Like my music would remain unheard in my head and hard drive.

Frustrated by my inability to get my music heard, I started researching solutions.

Instead, I wanted to find a way where I could focus on making the music and let someone else deal with promoting it.

I realized the music licensing was the perfect opportunity for a solo artist like me to get my music heard, without having to do any promotion. I just need to focus on improving what I could control - my songwriting and my production skills.

While I still have a full-time day job, I have created systems that have allowed me to produce dozens of songs a year in my spare time.

My songs have been on Netflix, TV shows like the 90 Day Fiance, an award-winning indie film, and NPR’s “All Thing Considered.” They've also been streamed millions of times.

In addition to being a music producer, I am passionate about teaching people how they can make professional-sounding music and earn money licensing it, all in their spare time.

Thousands of musicians, like yourself, have trusted me to guide their musical journey. My YouTube videos have been watched nearly a million times. And my story has been in Forbes, Side Hustle Nation, and the Side Hustle School.
