FAQ: Remove Background Music
Will my speech sound natural after removal?
Yes — modern AI models preserve speech intelligibility while removing the music layer.
Does it work on video soundtracks?
Extract the audio track from your video, run it through the tool, and re-mux the cleaned audio back into your video editor.
Is it free?
Yes — free credits to start, with paid plans for Hi-Fi and longer files.
What if the music is louder than the speech?
Modern source-separation handles loud music well, though very quiet speech against very loud music may sound thin after removal.

Yes — generate replacement music with our AI Background Music Generator and re-mix in your editor.
