The picture stays the same. The isolated version keeps only the speech.

Speech in, everything else out

Voice isolation keeps the person talking and drops the rest of the mix: noise, music, ambience. Sonilo does it with a speech enhancement model, so it is at its best on dialogue, narration, interviews and calls. It is made for speech only, not singing. For a sung vocal, use Acapella Extractor. Your Library keeps the cleaned voice and the removed noise as separate tracks, next to the finished MP4 or MP3.

Use cases

Dialogue for a new edit

Lift the speech out of a clip so you can put it over new music or a new scene.

Clean voice for transcripts and captions

Give a transcription or captioning tool only the voice to listen to.

Narration from a noisy set

Keep a usable narration take that was recorded with sound in the background.

FAQ

Before you begin

What is the difference between a voice isolator and a noise remover?+

On Sonilo they are the same model. A voice isolator keeps only the speech, which is what you get at 100% strength. A noise remover keeps the voice and takes out what is behind it, and you can lower Strength to leave some of the room.

Can it isolate singing from a song?+

No. The model is made for spoken voice only, and a sung vocal over music will be cut or distorted in places. Use it for dialogue, narration, interviews and calls. For a sung vocal, use Acapella Extractor.

Can I download only the isolated voice?+

Yes. Your Library keeps the cleaned voice and the removed noise as separate audio tracks next to the export. On Free, a job counts once toward your 3 a month, whichever of its files you download.

How do I add music after isolating the voice?+

Download the cleaned file. For a video, open Video to Music on Sonilo to generate music made for that cut. To use a music track you already have, put it under the voice in your editor, then upload that video to Balance Voice and Music to lower the music whenever someone speaks.
