What is a stem splitter?+
A stem splitter, also called a stem separator or stem extractor, takes a finished song and splits it into separate parts such as vocals, drums and bass. AI models do this by learning what each kind of sound looks like and estimating it from the full mix.
Is this AI stem splitter free to use right now?+
Choosing a song and previewing it on this page is free. AI separation needs an account and uses credits: 20 per started minute of audio with a 2-minute minimum, from a plan or credit pack, and failed runs are refunded automatically.
Is a free AI stem splitter lossless?+
No stem splitter is truly lossless. Each stem is the model's estimate of one part, so faint bleed from other instruments and small artifacts are normal. You keep the most detail by uploading a lossless or high bitrate source instead of a heavily compressed copy.
How many stems can it split a song into?+
It splits a song into four stems: vocals, drums, bass and other instruments, and each one is ready to play and download. If you only need vocals and an instrumental, the vocal remover is the simpler choice.
Stem separator vs vocal remover: what is the difference?+
A vocal remover makes a two-way split: the vocals and the instrumental. A stem separator goes further and also divides the instrumental into parts such as drums and bass. Pick the vocal remover for karaoke, and stems for remixing, DJ edits and practice.
How do I remove drums from a song?+
Split the song into stems, leave the drum stem out and mix the rest back together, for example in the audio mixer. The drum remover does both steps for you and hands back a drumless track plus the isolated drums. Our guide on removing drums from a song covers the full process.
Is it legal to use a stem extractor on any song?+
Splitting a song does not change its copyright: the stems belong to whoever owns the original recording. Personal practice is one thing, but releasing a remix or using a sample publicly needs permission. Use music you own, or check the license first.
What happens to my file when I split a song?+
AI separation does not run in your browser. When you start a split, your file is uploaded to our server and an AI model provider for processing, and it is used only to handle your request. Our privacy policy explains how uploaded files are treated.
