Too bad you can’t turn the vocals all the way off and just listen to the instrumental. You can get so close, but not all the way.

It’s done by the neural engines and not by the publishers, so it’s not possible to omit vocals 100%. Its indicator also presents well— close to the bottom but not completely gone.

For odd reasons it's not available to the whole music catalog, seems like it's limited to English songs?
English or not, definitely not all of the songs, bummer.
I wonder if there’s licensing issues, like they can’t just mess with a song without permission.

Also I wanted to say despite what someone here on said in a reply to the initial story, the public GM does let you AirPlay mirror to an older Apple TV 4K + HomePods!

A lot of hype for what is essentially just a filter that cancels out the center vocals. It’s not even very good at it.

Very cool that neural engines are doing this.
