Vocals out, music intact

The free result removes the vocal. Clean removes the last of the bleed for one song, so it sounds like a real karaoke version.

Your key, your tempo

Move the song up to 5 semitones up or down and set the tempo from 50 to 150 percent. Hear it free, keep it in the file with Clean.

No download step

Paste the link and the audio is fetched and separated in one go. Have the file already? Drop it on the same bar.

How to make a karaoke version of a YouTube song

  1. Paste the link

    Copy the song's YouTube link, paste it in the bar above and press Make my karaoke track. Shorts and youtu.be links work too.

  2. Find your key

    On the result, move Key until the chorus feels easy, press Apply and sing along to check. Slow the tempo down if a part is too fast.

  3. Sing it

    Sing over the track right on the page, full length. Clean keeps your key and tempo in the file and gives you WAV, for $2.99.

How far to move the key

Start with the chorus, since it is usually the highest part. Pick the line that fits, then adjust by one semitone at a time.

IfMove the key
The chorus feels high or strainedDown 2
It sits low and you sound quietUp 1 or 2
A man singing a song by a womanDown 4 or 5
A woman singing a song by a manUp 3 to 5

Moves of 1 to 3 semitones sound the most natural. At 4 or 5 you may hear a slight change in the sound, mostly on drums and cymbals.
