You can set it to speed up every time you play the section correctly by X%, or only after you play it correctly X number of times.
ie a good way to build muscle memory is to Drop the speed low, to 10% speed, and have it increase 10% everytime you hit 100%. Then when you start missing notes, change it to increase by 5%, after completing the section 3 or 5 times with 100% accuracy.
Less useful overall but can be useful sometimes - You can also drop the complexity of the tab by percentages, so it has less notes, but helps you get used to moving position or hitting the core notes, and then increase them gradually.
If you don't want to hear the original guitar and you're prepared to do a little research/work to learn how to use a 3rd party app, you can create custom song files using a backing track of the song along with the tab. There are others you can download made by other people.
Or if it is a song that stems (individual instrument tracks) are available for on the web, then you can create a custom chart with just the guitar as audio, if you wanted, or, you could make a backing track using the original artist's tracks minus the guitar.
There's lots of other little useful features too. Great bang for buck, even more if you pick it up cheap when it's on sale!
If you go for the Rocksmith+ version (might be a monthly subscription) you can use traditional guitar tab view.
Although, if learning songs as quickly and easily as possible is the goal, worth learning the 3D tab which becomes really easy to sight read

Ultimately, nothing will do a perfect job isolating components of a full mix...good enough to learn from, not good enough to use as a backing track.

I can’t over emphasise the importance of trading your ears. It’s not just the notes played. There is the use of FX, eg choice of Wah range and Q, pickup, and fret position to get a particular sound. There are also all the slides, slurs, vibrato and other mannerisms which go to make a performance. Whenever I hear another guitar player it’s not the notes played, but the way they are played, which tells me how good they are.
