How to separate two guitars
Every stem splitter stops at "the guitar", and on most records that is two people. One plays the chords and one plays the line, or one is panned left and the other right, and the guitar stem hands you both at once. The guitar splitter is the step after: one guitarist per track.
- Add a song or a guitar track: Drop a WAV, AIFF, MP3, M4A, FLAC or OGG: the full mix, or a guitar bounce if you have one.
- Choose the split: Say what is playing: two electrics, two acoustics, or an electric and an acoustic.
- Take the two tracks: Each player on a track of their own, in time with the recording, to rebalance, learn or transcribe separately.

Questions about the guitar splitter?
We have answers.
Can I separate lead guitar from rhythm guitar?
Yes. Run a guitar split and the two players come back on two tracks. On most records that is the rhythm part and the lead.
Does it work on two acoustic guitars?
Yes. Two electrics, two acoustics, and an electric with an acoustic are the three splits it offers.
Is it free?
Yes, to start. A free account comes with 120 credits a month and separating a song is 20, with no card needed to start. Pro has 2,000 a month.
Can it split three or four guitars?
On this page the split is into two players. Over the API and the MCP server the same splitter takes two to four, or decides for itself whether it hears one guitar or two.
Do I need the guitars on their own first?
No. From a full song the guitars are isolated from the band first, then split.

Three kinds of two guitars
An electric against an acoustic is the easier split, because they are different instruments: each has its own extractor and comes out on its own track. Two electrics, or two acoustics, are the same instrument twice, and nothing about the sound tells them apart. That case gets a different tool, a splitter trained to deal one kind of guitar into its players.
Isolate first, then deal
The split runs in two stages. The guitars are first pulled out of the band as one bucket, with the electric or the acoustic extractor. A same-instrument splitter then deals that bucket into two players. Starting from a guitar-only recording, the first stage has nothing to remove and the second does the work.
A quick lead and rhythm pass
For a short clip there is a faster route. Turbo splits lead from rhythm with signal processing rather than the neural splitter, in seconds, on clips up to ninety seconds. It is the rough cut: good for checking what the second guitar is doing, not for a final stem.
Guitar splitter, guitar separation: one job
A guitar splitter, guitar separation, lead and rhythm guitar separation and a way to separate two guitars all name this one job. To take the guitars out of the song altogether, or keep them alone, that is the guitar remover and isolator.
