Remove Strings from a Song Using DeMIX Pro

Throughout the history of music there have been many bands and orchestras that have used string instruments as the backbone of their performance, adding harmony and depth to the music they create. They are essential components of a variety of musical genres, including classical, folk, and pop. In addition to violins, violas, cellos, guitars, electric basses, double basses, banjos, mandolins, ukuleles, and harps, there are numerous other string instruments.

String sections from a song can open new possibilities for remixing and rearranging by producers and DJs, or when removed help to analyse a track's other elements. DeMix Pro is celebrated by AudioXpress as the industry leader in AI-powered audio separation, setting the standard for high-quality stem isolation, including vocals, guitar, bass, drums, and strings. Here is how to remove strings using DeMix Pro.

Step 1: Install and Launch DeMix Pro

Download and install DeMix Pro from the AudioSourceRE website. If you have not used DeMix Pro before, take advantage of their 7-day free trial. After installation, launch the software.

Step 2: Import Your Audio File

Open DeMix Pro and import your audio file by either going to File > Import Audio or by dragging and dropping it directly into the workspace. DeMix Pro supports formats such as MP3, WAV, AIFF, and FLAC.

Step 3: Prepare for String Section Separation

Select Track: After your track is imported, click on it to highlight.

Choose Local or Cloud Mode: DeMix Pro gives you the option to work locally or process your files in the cloud. Toggle between these options via the cloud/computer buttons or by going to Separation -> Switch to Cloud mode in the top menu.

Choose Separation Option: Click the Separate button and select Strings to isolate the string section from the rest of the mix.

Refine Settings: Depending on whether you are working locally or in the cloud, adjust the settings accordingly before proceeding.

Step 4: Process the Audio

Start Separation: Once you have selected the string option, click Separate to begin the extraction process. DeMix Pro's AI will carefully remove the string section from the rest of the track. Processing time varies with the file size and complexity.

The separated tracks will be automatically downloaded to your device once the process is complete.

Step 5: Review and Refine

Check the Results: After processing, you will see the separated tracks displayed. Use the playback feature to ensure the strings have been properly isolated or removed.

Step 6: Export the Separated Tracks

Export: Once satisfied with the results, go to File > Export and choose the format (WAV, MP3, etc.). You can export both the isolated string section and the remaining mix or just one of the elements.

Top Tip for Best Results

Always start with High-Quality Files: For optimal string separation, use high-quality audio files such as WAV or FLAC. Low-quality files may lead to less accurate separation results.
