Transform Your Jam with AI Audio Separation

You know that guitar riff buried in the second verse of your favourite track, the one you've been trying to nail for weeks? It's in there. You just can't hear it clearly enough to catch it.

Until now, the mix always got in the way. But JBL is here to change that.

JBL BandBox is JBL's first range to bring AI audio separation directly into your playing. Stream any song, isolate any part in real time, and step straight in. It doesn't matter whether you're a seasoned performer chasing the perfect tone or someone three good sessions away from breakthrough music. This technology meets you where you are.

Here's how it works, and why it changes everything about the way you play.

What is AI Audio Separation?

You've heard a solo so good it stops you mid-scroll. You rewind it, listen again, and think, "I want to learn that!" Then you hit play on the full music track and try to follow along while the bass, drums, and vocals all hit your ears at once, making for great music and bad focus.

That's the problem AI audio separation solves. And it's changing how musicians practise, perform, and create.

The Old Way of Isolating Sound

For decades, isolating a part of a song meant lots of trial and error and feeling like you were in a home studio rather than a professional setup. Engineers would exploit the way tracks were mixed, panning instruments hard left or right, then cutting the opposite channel to remove them. Others used EQ to carve out frequencies.

It worked, sort of. You could reduce a vocal or rough out a bassline, but the results were always compromised. You'd lose clarity, introduce artefacts, or find that the part you wanted to hear was still tangled up with everything else. Basically, people made the best of what they had.

What AI Audio Separation Actually Is

AI audio separation works differently at the root level. Instead of guessing based on frequencies or panning, AI models are trained on enormous amounts of music to recognise the distinct characteristics of different instruments and voices. When you stream music, the model identifies each element and separates them into individual stems in real time.

Vocals, guitar, drums. Each one isolated, each one clean. No internet connection required. No post-processing. The speakers separates the elements and pumps up the one you want to hear without fiddling with EQ controls.

The result is a genuinely usable split that lets you hear and practice against each part independently.*

What This Means for the Way You Actually Play

The practical difference is significant. Here's what opens up when every part of a track is yours to control.

Mute the guitar and play alongside the original rhythm section yourself. Isolate a solo and loop it until it's locked into your muscle memory. Or put your voice into that Indonesian rock classic you're always belting in the shower and finally hear how good it actually sounds.

The mix no longer gets in the way. JBL audio separation puts you inside the music rather than playing at it from the outside. You're jamming with the old masters, locking in with your crew, or stepping into a track you just discovered. You’re part of the jam session.

Meet the JBL BandBox: Plug-and-Play AI Stem Separation

That’s the idea behind the JBL BandBox range: real-time AI stem separation in a portable speaker that goes wherever you do. Its two models share the same core AI capability, onboard effects, a tuner, a metronome, and deeper control through the JBL One app. The difference is in scale.

This portable amplifier fits in a backpack, runs all session without a wall socket, and puts AI stem separation directly into your solo setup.
