If your answer is not here, please reach out via the Support page.

Can I change YouTube pitch without installing another app?+

ToneBrowser ships with a pitch engine inside the browser itself. Open a YouTube URL and adjust pitch and speed in real time — no download, no conversion.

Why does pitch change when I speed up a normal player?+

Default players resample audio, so speed and pitch move together. ToneBrowser uses a time/pitch separation algorithm, so you can move them independently.

Does vocal removal work on every song?+

It works best on stereo mixes where the vocal sits in the center channel. Mono tracks and live recordings with off-center vocals will see weaker results.

Can buskers actually use this live?+

Yes — common workflow is to set the key in rehearsal, remove vocals for a backing track, then run it into a small speaker during the set. A-B loop also helps drill medleys.

Is it free?+

Core features are free. Ad-removal and some advanced tools are available as in-app purchases, visible inside the app.

Both iOS and Android?+

Yes — App Store (iOS 16+) and Google Play.

Does it work offline?+

The pitch, speed and vocal-remover engines run fully on-device. Streaming services like YouTube still need internet.
