Details & privacy

These four tracks are AI estimates. Some sound may bleed between tracks, and mixing all four may differ from the original. Listen before downloading.

Other instruments combines sounds such as guitar, piano and synths; it does not separate each instrument.

Playback and downloads use the same mix. A shared volume reduction prevents clipping when needed.

Downloads combine the checked tracks for the full recording. The practice loop does not trim the download.

Repeat a section while you practice. Times are relative to this result.

Downloads about 45 MB for the model, plus processing libraries. Your recording stays on this device.

The model is cached when browser storage allows. Your recording is not saved with it.

Choose the sounds you want to keep

All four tracks start checked. Unchecked tracks turn gray and are excluded from both playback and download.

  • Play drums with the band: uncheck Drums. Vocals, bass and other instruments remain in the mix.
  • Learn the bass line: leave only Bass checked, then repeat a difficult passage with the A–B loop.
  • Make a singing backing track: uncheck Vocals. For just vocals and a combined instrumental, use the simpler Vocal Remover.
  • Hear the singing: leave only Vocals checked. Adjust its volume if needed.

From a recording to a practice track

  1. Choose a local audio file or video with sound. Separation starts automatically. Trim audio or trim video first if it exceeds three minutes or 100 MiB.
  2. When the four tracks are ready, uncheck any you do not want. Play the mix and adjust the selected tracks’ volumes.
  3. Download the checked tracks together as one MP3 or WAV file. With video input, you can also keep the original picture with this mix. Changing your selection does not require another separation.

Example: rehearse a chorus without its drums

Choose your performance video and wait for the four tracks. Uncheck Drums, then play the chorus and listen for remaining cymbals or changes to the bass and vocals. Use the A–B loop to rehearse the difficult passage. Download the checked tracks as one full-length MP3 or WAV, or export the original video with the same drum-reduced mix to keep the visual cues.

Keep the original recording and download the results before leaving. Explore the free tools for the next edit.

Practice at your own pace

Open Practice below the tracks to slow a difficult passage or move the key into a comfortable range. Play prepares the changed audio, and the next audio download uses that same mix. A–B loop times adjust when speed changes to keep the same passage; downloads still contain the full recording.

Questions about instrument separation

Is the stem splitter free, and are my files uploaded?

Separation, practice playback and downloads are free without an account. Your media stays on your device. The browser downloads about 45 MB of model data plus processing libraries; the model cache does not contain your recording.

Which audio and video files can I use?

Choose a local file up to three minutes and 100 MiB. Separation starts automatically after the file is loaded. MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, MP4 and WebM are examples; support depends on the codecs. The source must have browser-decodable mono or stereo sound at 8–96 kHz. A current desktop browser is recommended because separation uses substantial memory.

Can I isolate guitar, piano or individual drums?

The model estimates four tracks: vocals, drums, bass and other instruments. Guitar, piano, strings and similar parts remain together in Other. It does not split kick from snare, separate individual singers or recover the original studio multitracks.

Can I download audio or a video with the new mix?

All checked tracks are combined into one MP3 or WAV file with the same selected levels as playback. MP3 is a smaller 192 kbps download; WAV preserves stereo 44.1 kHz 32-bit float audio for editing. To save one track, leave only that track checked. Switching format does not repeat separation. For video input, a compatible MP4 or WebM can keep the original picture with the selected mix; extra audio and subtitle tracks are omitted. A shared volume reduction prevents clipping when needed. Video export is available at 100% speed and key 0; reset practice settings to restore it.

Does the practice loop trim my download?

No. A–B looping repeats a passage while you listen. Downloads always contain the checked tracks mixed across the full recording, regardless of the loop.

Why can I still hear some drums or singing?

Sounds overlap in a recording. Reverb, dense arrangements and distorted instruments can leave bleed or remove useful detail. Listen to the result before downloading. The four estimated tracks may not sum exactly to the original; all tracks checked at their default levels are a reconstructed mix.

Can I slow down the music or change its key?

Yes. Open Practice and set speed from 50% to 150%, or move the key up or down by up to six semitones. Speed keeps the pitch; key changes keep the speed. Press Play to hear the prepared mix, then download the same result as MP3 or WAV. Changing a track or setting prepares a new mix without repeating separation. Reset to 100% speed and key 0 for the original mix or video export. Large changes may affect the sound. This does not add lyrics or fetch songs from streaming links.
