What Audiola is
Audiola is a free desktop audio studio for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It can separate songs into vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano, and other stems using Demucs on the user's machine, without cloud processing or uploads. In its multitrack editor, users can cut, move, fade, and loop clips, with undo history, snapping, and effects. A karaoke view displays lyrics and the original melody, scores a performance, and can tune a recorded take toward that melody. Mastering tools include EQ, compression, loudness targeting per EBU R128, live A/B comparison, and 14 profiles. Audiola also supports local or ElevenLabs voice profiles, voice swapping, and speech tracks from text; users are advised to use only their own or licensed voices. Tracks can be placed in a 7.1.4 spatial bed, which the maker says can be exported. Exports include WAV, MP3, and AAC-M4A. Audiola is listed as free, with a contact form for questions and feedback that does not require an account.
