Turn any song into an instrumental

StemXray builds an instrumental (often called an MR) from any song by removing the vocals and keeping every instrument. Singers use it for covers, teachers for lessons, and performers for live backing. Because it's AI separation rather than a center-channel filter, drums and bass stay punchy and the mix doesn't collapse.

Frequently asked questions

What is an MR / instrumental?

It's the song with the vocals taken out — the backing track musicians sing or play over.

Is the quality good enough to perform with?

Yes. The Hi-Res WAV export on Pro is clean enough for live and studio use; the free MP3 is great for practice.

Which songs work best?

Modern stereo mixes separate best. Very old mono or heavily bootlegged recordings are harder but still usable.
