About SoundScrub
SoundScrub is a desktop application that uses advanced AI to remove unwanted sounds from videos with precision and ease.
What is SoundScrub?
SoundScrub is a professional audio isolation tool designed for video creators, editors, podcasters, and content producers who need to remove specific sounds from their video files. Unlike traditional audio editing software that requires manual selection and filtering, SoundScrub uses AI-powered source separation to intelligently isolate and remove unwanted audio elements.
The application extracts audio from your video file, sends it to the cloud for AI processing, then merges the processed audio back into your original video. You can remove background music, people speaking, singing voices, drum tracks, ambient noise, or any custom sound you describe in natural language. Your video file stays on your machine throughout the process.
How It Works
1. Select Your Video
Select any video file from your computer. The app supports all common video formats and automatically extracts the audio for processing. Your video file stays on your machine.
2. Specify What to Remove
Use preset options like speech, background music, singing, drums, or ambient noise. Or describe any custom sound you want removed using natural language. For example: "dog barking" or "keyboard clicking sounds".
3. AI Processing
The app extracts audio from your video and sends it to the cloud for processing. SoundScrub's AI analyzes the audio and separates the unwanted sounds. The processed audio is then returned to your app. Your original video never leaves your machine.
4. Get Clean Video
Once processing is complete, the app downloads the processed audio and merges it back into your original video. The video and audio quality remains unchanged - only the specified audio elements are eliminated.
