vocal-remover

This is a deep-learning-based tool for extracting the instrumental track from your songs.

Installation

Getting vocal-remover

Download the latest version from here.

Install PyTorch

See: GET STARTED

Install the other packages

cd vocal-remover
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

The following command separates the input into instrumental and vocal tracks. They are saved as *_Instruments.wav and *_Vocals.wav.

Run on CPU

python inference.py --input path/to/an/audio/file

Run on GPU

python inference.py --input path/to/an/audio/file --gpu 0

Advanced options

The --tta option performs Test-Time Augmentation to improve separation quality.

python inference.py --input path/to/an/audio/file --tta --gpu 0

The --postprocess option masks the instrumental track based on the vocal volume to improve separation quality.

python inference.py --input path/to/an/audio/file --postprocess --gpu 0
