How do I remove vocals or split a song into stems with Sonilo?

Short answer

Sonilo has three free song tools: the vocal remover and acapella extractor split a song into vocals and instrumental, and the stem splitter splits it into vocals, drums, bass and other. Splitting, listening and downloading the separated tracks are free on every plan with a Sonilo account, and use no credits.
