Isolate the sounds you need with SAM Audio workflows
Prompt packs, troubleshooting, and step-by-step playbooks for real editing tasks: isolate dialogue, extract sound effects, and rebuild a clean mix faster.
What you can do on this site
This isn’t just a link list. It’s a practical toolkit: reusable prompts, a “fix bad results” playbook, and guides you can follow while editing.
How SAM Audio “segments” and separates audio
Think of it as an interactive way to extract sounds from a mixed track. You provide a prompt, the model isolates the target sound, and you iterate until it’s clean enough for editing.
How to use the Segment Audio demo
Use this loop in any promptable separation tool: prompt → preview → refine → export.

FAQ
What is SAM Audio?
SAM Audio is a unified multimodal model for audio separation that aims to isolate a target sound from complex mixtures using text, visual, or span prompts.
What does “segment audio” mean?
Segment audio means selecting (or prompting for) the parts of an audio clip that correspond to a specific sound event, then separating that sound into its own track.
Can SAM Audio isolate any sound?
It’s designed for broad “any sound” targeting, but results depend on the audio quality, overlap, and how clearly the target sound is described or selected.
How do text prompts work for audio separation?
You describe the sound you want (e.g., “footsteps”, “female speech”, “applause”), and the model attempts to extract that sound from the mix.
What are text, visual, and span prompts?
Text prompts describe the sound in words, span prompts specify a time segment, and visual prompts (when available) let you mark regions that correspond to the target sound.
How is SAM Audio different from Demucs or Spleeter?
Classic tools often focus on fixed stems (like vocals/instrumentals). SAM Audio is positioned around promptable, multimodal targeting and interactive editing workflows.
Is there an official demo to try?
Yes—Meta hosts an interactive “Segment Audio” demo where you can experiment with prompts and listen to extracted results.
