Get Clean Remix Vocals with a Vocal Isolator
An AI vocal isolator splits any song into a vocal stem and an instrumental stem. Here is how to get an acapella clean enough to build a remix on.
By Diego Ramos · Updated
Pick the right mode for your remix
The vocal isolator offers a mode for each kind of vocal.

Three choices before upload shape how clean the acapella sounds.

Vocal isolator questions
Is there a free vocal isolator?
Yes. The MusiCraft Stem Splitter works as a vocal isolator online free in your browser. Upload a song and download the vocal stem.
How does an AI vocal isolator work?
It learns how voices and instruments look across time and frequency, then moves the voice onto its own stem.
Can I try the AI vocal isolator free?
Yes. Upload a song and preview every stem before you download.
Which songs give the cleanest acapella?
Simple arrangements such as pop ballads and singer songwriter tracks. Dense mixes with heavy effects keep a little more of the band in the vocal.

MP3, WAV, FLAC or M4A, up to 100 MB and 10 minutes per file.
Can I use the acapella in a released remix?
