Frequently asked questions
How does the YouTube vocal remover work?
MeloLab imports audio from a public YouTube link you are allowed to process, then separates the mix into an instrumental and an isolated vocal track.
Why is the quality not always perfect?
Separation depends on the original mix. Heavy reverb, layered vocals, distortion, and compressed uploads can leave some bleed between the two outputs.
What video types work best?
Public, available videos with a clean stereo mix work best. Private, age-restricted, region-restricted, live, or unavailable videos may not be accessible.
What happens to my files?
Imported audio and generated results are connected to your signed-in library so you can preview and download them.
Can I use the results commercially?
Only if you already own the necessary rights or have permission from the rights holder. Vocal removal does not change copyright ownership.
How many credits does it cost?
Importing the source costs no credits. Running vocal separation costs 4 credits.
