Download
| Your computer | Installer | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Windows 10/11 x64 | SoundShredder-Electron-1.2.2-Windows-x64-Setup.exe | Windows installation |
| Mac — Apple Silicon / M-series | SoundShredder-Electron-1.2.2-macOS-arm64.dmg | Mac installation |

Mac requires macOS 13 or newer. Both Mac builds are Developer ID signed and Apple-notarized. ZIP alternatives: Apple Silicon · Intel. SHA-256 checksums cover all installers and attached guides.
Windows: run the EXE, choose the application folder, and open SoundShredder from Start. Mac: open the matching DMG, drag SoundShredder into Applications, eject the disk image, and launch from Applications.
In setup, optionally choose a folder for engines, models and sessions, then select Set up SoundShredder. No separate Python installation or Homebrew is needed. Initial engine/model downloads require internet; cached processing works offline. Windows offers CPU or compatible NVIDIA GPU processing; Mac uses CPU.
Windows download warning
Windows publisher signing is pending. Edge may say the EXE is not commonly downloaded, or Windows may show an unknown publisher/SmartScreen prompt. Use the official xD4O/SoundShredder release and compare its checksum. This reputation warning is not a specific malware detection; GitHub hosting alone does not guarantee safety. Verification and warning instructions.

- Toggle video preview while comparing the original, cleaned mix, isolated tracks and removed sounds.
- Download audio mixes and individual tracks, then reopen saved sessions later.

Updating
This release makes 1.2.2 the repository's Latest version, replacing 1.0.3 as the default download. It uses the same verified installer bytes as the separate Windows and signed Mac 1.2.2 releases. If you already installed one of those 1.2.2 builds, you do not need to reinstall.
Help → Check for Electron updates opens releases. The sidebar's Check for updates now recognizes this published version. Updates remain manual: quit, install the newer Windows EXE or replace the Mac app, then reopen. Existing sessions and compatible engines are retained.
Prefer the browser interface? Download the v1.2.2 source ZIP and follow the Windows or Mac browser setup. Source use still requires Python.
Verification and limits
- Windows native verification, from
fec34aca4eb6e125d21c9d579fbe28ba78086094: install/reinstall/uninstall, CPU setup and real separation/export, video preview, storage selection/recovery, and close/reopen/crash tests. - Apple Silicon and Intel native verification, from
2c017845b781d709cdb7bc49d5110cf9419ae224: notarization, Gatekeeper, stapled tickets, integrity of DMG/ZIP app contents, CPU processing/export and lifecycle/storage tests. A user additionally confirmed the Finder installation test worked on their Mac. - The Windows installer remains unsigned and may show SmartScreen. Broader hardware and NVIDIA inference validation remain outstanding; Mac Metal/MPS acceleration is not enabled. Bubble FX is experimental and can affect similar wanted sounds. Compare the original and removed audio before using a result.
- Downloads are audio exports; the video monitor does not export a replacement MP4. There is no automatic update installation.
