Video Music Remover removes background music from a video while preserving dialogue, voices, sound effects, ambience, and the original picture. Use it to clean music from existing footage before reposting, replace a soundtrack with your own music, or prepare video for dubbing and further audio editing.
The model works directly from a source video and supports clips up to 10 minutes in a single request.
Background music removal
Remove songs, instrumental scores, and other music beds from an existing video.
Dialogue preservation
Keep spoken voices while removing the surrounding music.
Sound-effect preservation
Retain footsteps, impacts, ambience, environmental sounds, and other non-music audio where possible.
Original picture preserved
The visual content is not regenerated, so the video keeps its original picture, framing, and visual quality.
Long-video support
Process up to 600 seconds of source video in a single request.
Simple workflow
Provide one video and receive a version with the background music removed.
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| video | Yes | Input video provided by public URL. Up to the first 600 seconds are processed. |
Pricing is based on the processed input video duration.
The rate is $0.01 per 5 billed seconds, equivalent to $0.002 per billed second.
Input duration is rounded up to the next whole second, with a minimum billed duration of 3 seconds and a maximum billed duration of 600 seconds.
| Video Duration | Billed Duration | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1s | 3s | $0.006 |
| 3s | 3s | $0.006 |
| 5s | 5s | $0.010 |
| 30s | 30s | $0.060 |
| 60s | 60s | $0.120 |
| 300s | 300s | $0.600 |
| 600s | 600s | $1.200 |
Videos longer than 600 seconds are processed and billed only up to the first 600 seconds.
video is the only required parameter.600 seconds.10 minutes are limited to the first 10 minutes.Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/wavespeed-ai/video-music-remover with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id. Start polling the result endpoint around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. On completed, read output values from data.outputs. Examples for Video Music Remover below.

time.sleep(2)Video Music Remover is a WaveSpeedAI model for video processing, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Video Music Remover strips the background music from any video while keeping dialogue and sound effects, so you can reuse, re-score or dub footage. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.
POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID. Poll the result endpoint starting around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. The playground generates Python, JavaScript, and cURL examples for submitting requests and polling results. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/video-music-remover.
Video Music Remover starts at $0.01 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.
Key inputs: `video`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/video-music-remover.
Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.
Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (WaveSpeedAI). Check the provider's applicable terms and WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service before commercial use.
