Workflow Steps
Separate stems (vocals / drums / bass / instruments)
LALAL.AIStart by splitting stems so you can edit only what you need.
ACTION GUIDE
Upload audio → choose stem separation (vocals/instrumental) Then export: - Vocals only - Instrumental only If available: drums/bass/other stems too.
Clean the result (noise, levels, fades)
FilmoraStem outputs often need quick cleanup for professional sound.
ACTION GUIDE
Cleanup checklist: - Trim silence - Light noise reduction - Normalize loudness - Fade in/out 0.3–0.8s - Export WAV/MP3
Pick best use-case (karaoke / remix / background)
ChatGPTDecide what you’re making so you export the right format and length.
PROMPT
You are my audio editor. Goal: decide the best use case and export settings for separated stems. Use cases: A) Karaoke (vocal removed) B) Remix (isolate drums/bass/vocals if possible) C) Background BGM (instrumental under voice) Inputs: - What stems I have: [vocals / instrumental / drums / bass / other] - Where I will use it: [YouTube / Shorts / Podcast / Live] - Desired length: [full / 30s / loopable] Output: 1) Best pick (A/B/C) 2) Why it fits (2–3 bullets) 3) Export checklist (format, loudness target, fades, loop advice)
Pro Tips
- ✓Always preview vocal-only and instrumental-only versions before exporting
- ✓For music covers, slight artifacts are acceptable — clarity beats perfection
- ✓If vocals sound hollow, try a second pass with a different separation mode
- ✓Export WAV first; convert to MP3 only after final checks
- ✓Instrumentals work best when vocals are reduced, not 100% removed
- ✓Avoid heavy reverb tracks — separation quality drops significantly
