AudioShake Releases Five New Music Instrument Stems
Need to isolate a lead vocal without the harmonies bleeding through? Want to pull just the electric guitar without touching the acoustic? Trying to extract piano and organ from a dense mix without mangling the texture?
AudioShake is releasing five new music separation models built specifically for these scenarios: lead vocals, backing vocals, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, keys, and an updated piano model. These models deliver production-quality isolations for a variety of use cases, from live performances to spatial mixing.
And we've already put them to work. Singa, a leading karaoke technology company modernising the industry, uses AudioShake to isolate lead and backing vocals, unlocking premium karaoke experiences for millions of singers and thousands of venues worldwide.
Lead and Backing Vocal Separation
Lead and Backing Vocals are now available as dedicated separation targets, giving you explicit control over primary vocals and supporting layers—ideal for karaoke creation, remixing, and restoration workflows. This removes the need to rely on a single “all vocals” stem and makes it easier to preserve harmonies while isolating a clear lead.
What You Can Do With Lead and Backing Vocal Stems
- Create karaoke tracks that keep the harmonies intact
- Extract lead vocals for remix work without harmonic bleed.
- Pull backing vocals separately to rebalance or resample vocal textures.
- Deliver flexible vocal stems for sync licensing or spatial audio mixing.
- Restore archival recordings where vocals need independent processing.
Electric and Acoustic Guitar Separation
Separation that understands the difference between electric and acoustic guitar. Whether you’re working with fingerstyle acoustic or heavily processed electric parts, these are now available as distinct, dedicated targets—no more collapsing all guitars into a single stem. Electric and Acoustic Guitar are now separated as independent targets, making it easier to work with each instrument on its own terms across mixing, remixing, and educational workflows.
What You Can Do With Electric and Acoustic Guitar Stems
- Create clean examples for music education, transcription, and practice.
- Isolate electric guitar to shape tone, balance effects, or simplify dense mixes.
- Pull acoustic guitar for focused EQ, dynamics, or clarity in singer-songwriter material.
- Separate guitar types for genre-specific remixing and arrangement changes.
- Build sample libraries organized by guitar type and playing style.
Keys and Piano Separation
The keys model handles the full range of keyboard instruments—synthesizers, organs, electric pianos—in a single separation. The updated piano model now exclusively captures true acoustic piano with improved fidelity, while all keyboard instruments—including instruments such as pianos, rhodes, and organs—are handled by the dedicated Keys model.
What You Can Do With Keys and Piano Stems
- Create practice tracks or educational materials from piano recordings.
- Extract synth lines for sampling or layering in new productions.
- Isolate piano from dense classical or jazz mixes for restoration work.
How to Access AudioShake's New Music Separation Models
All of these models are now available on AudioShake Live, AudioShake Indie, and through AudioShake's API.
