Why Creators Choose Stem Splitter AI
Six clean stems, not just vocals and music
An AI separation model on cloud GPUs splits vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano and other in one pass. It scores 14.62 dB on bass and 14.11 dB on drums on a public multi-genre benchmark, so the kick and bass stay solid instead of smearing.
Hear every stem before you pay
Solo all six stems free for 30 seconds, with no account. A song is charged once by its length, for all six stems, and your first 1 minute of downloads is free when you sign up.
Ready to drop into your DAW
Every stem starts on the same sample and the six add back up to the song. Download 44.1 kHz WAV, 24-bit or 48 kHz WAV, or MP3, one stem at a time or as a ZIP.
100% online, on any device
Runs in your browser on desktop or phone, with nothing to install and no GPU needed. Upload audio or video up to 2 GB; files are deleted after 24 hours.
How to split a song into stems
Four steps, from the song file to six stems in your DAW.
1
Upload the song. Drop an audio or video file up to 2 GB. The preview needs no account.
2
Listen to 30 seconds. The preview comes from the busiest part of the song. Solo the drums, mute the vocals, or switch back to the original.
3
Pick the format. 44.1 kHz WAV by default, 24-bit or 48 kHz for your session, or MP3 to save space.
4
Download. Take one stem, or all six in a ZIP named after your song.
What stems do you get from a song?
Six stems, each the full length of the song. A part the song does not have comes back nearly silent.
Vocals11.3 dB SDR
Vocals stem
Lead and backing vocals together, with the reverb that sits on them.
Use it for: An acapella for a remix or mashup, or a guide vocal to sing along to.
Drums14.11 dB SDR
Drums stem
Kick, snare, hi-hats, cymbals, toms, and most hand percussion.
Use it for: A loop to sample, or a click-free groove to practice over.
Bass14.62 dB SDR
Bass stem
Bass guitar, upright bass, and synth bass lines.
Use it for: A bass line to learn by ear, or to mute and play yourself.
Guitar
Guitar stem
Electric and acoustic guitars, rhythm and lead.
Use it for: A riff to transcribe, or a backing track without the guitar.
Piano
Piano stem
Acoustic piano, electric piano, and most keys.
Use it for: Chords to study, or a part to hand a piano student on its own.
Other8.72 dB SDR
Other stem
Everything the five named stems leave: synths, pads, strings, horns, and effects.
Use it for: The rest of the arrangement. Put all six back at full level and you hear the original mix.
How clean are the stems?
Clean enough to use on their own. The stems score 14.62 dB on bass and 14.11 dB on drums on a public multi-genre benchmark, where above 8 dB is usually called professional quality.
Signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) of each stem on a public multi-genre benchmark. Higher is cleaner; each 3 dB is about half the bleed and distortion.
Stem
SDR
What you hear
Bass
14.62 dB
Full low end and the pluck of the strings; very little kick drum underneath.
Drums
14.11 dB
Tight kick and snare with crisp hi-hats; the singer rarely ghosts through.
Vocals
11.3 dB
A usable acapella; long reverb tails can split between vocals and other.
Other
8.72 dB
The hardest stem, since it holds many instruments; expect some shared sound.
Guitar and piano have no published score on this benchmark. Listen to them in the free preview, especially when both play the same chords.
One Upload, Every Track You Need
The stem splitter gives you all six stems. These tools give you one finished track for one job, and the free ones work on any song or stem.
Acapella and instrumental
Lift the lead and backing vocals out as a clean acapella, with the instrumental as a second download and the tempo and key shown.
How do I use the stems in Ableton, FL Studio or Logic?
Drag the WAVs into new tracks at bar 1. They are already lined up, so there is nothing to nudge.
Every stem starts on the same sample
All six are the full length of the song, from the first sample to the last, so they stay in sync from the downbeat to the fade.
The six add back up to the song
Other holds exactly what the five named stems leave, so nothing falls between the stems when you rebuild the mix.
Match your session
44.1 kHz stereo WAV by default, or 24-bit and 48 kHz when your project runs at that rate. MP3 is there when size matters more.
Named for your song
The ZIP and each file carry the song’s name and the stem, so six songs’ stems never get mixed up in a sample folder.
When Stems Come Out Less Clean (and How to Fix It)
AI separation is an estimate, so some recordings leave faint traces in the wrong stem. These are the common cases and what to do about each.
Heavy reverb or echo on the voice. The reverb tail can bleed into Other or the instruments. Preview the chorus first, since it usually carries the most reverb.
Guitar and piano playing the same chords. When both double one part, some of one can land in the other. Solo each in the preview before you download.
Synths, strings, horns or pads. These have no stem of their own, so they go to Other. Use Other as the bed for everything the five named stems leave.
Live recordings and crowd noise. A crowd singing along is a voice too, so some of it goes to the vocal stem.
Low-bitrate MP3s or videos ripped many times. Compression artifacts are harder to separate. Upload the best file you have, such as WAV or FLAC.
Is this stem splitter right for you?
Best for
Producers and remixers who need guitar and piano as their own stems, not lumped into “other”
Musicians who want to mute their part and play along with the rest of the band
Anyone who wants UVR- or Demucs-class separation without a GPU, Python, or an install
DAW users who want stems that drop onto the grid already lined up
Not the right tool if
You want to paste a YouTube or Spotify link: upload the audio or video file instead
You need synths, strings, or horns on separate stems: they all go to Other
You need batch processing or an API for hundreds of files
Stem Splitter vs LALAL.AI, Moises and UVR: Which Should You Use?
Pick this stem splitter when you want all six stems from one charge and want to hear them before you pay. Pick LALAL.AI for synth, string or wind stems, Moises if you mostly practise along in a phone app, and UVR if you split hundreds of songs offline on your own GPU.

Who splits stems here, and why
Each card is a need we hear from musicians, producers, and DJs, with how the stem splitter handles it. These are use-case scenarios, not customer reviews.
Bass player
“I want the band without the bass, with the drums still tight, so I can play along.”
Mute the bass in the preview and the other five stems keep playing in sync. The bass stem scores 14.62 dB SDR, the cleanest of the six.
You can preview 30 seconds of all six stems free without signing up, and download your first 1 minute free when you create an account. After that, a song costs its length in minutes, charged once for all six stems, from $0.025 a minute.
Do I need an account to try it?
+
No. Upload a song and hear the preview first. You only sign in when you download.
Will there be bleed between the stems?
+
Some, as with any AI stem splitter. Bleed is lowest on bass (14.62 dB SDR) and drums (14.11 dB) and highest in Other, which holds many instruments. Live recordings and long reverb bleed the most. Solo each stem in the free preview to check before you pay.
Can I get guitar and piano stems?
+
Yes. Every split includes guitar and piano as their own stems, with no higher plan needed. Synths, strings, and horns go to Other.
Is it as good as UVR or Demucs?
+
On a public multi-genre benchmark, its stems score 14.62 dB SDR on bass and 14.11 dB on drums, well above the 8 dB usually called professional quality. Unlike UVR or Demucs, it needs no GPU, install, or model settings, and you can hear your own song in the free preview before you decide.
Should I upload a WAV or an MP3?
+
Upload the best copy you have. A low-bitrate MP3 has already lost some of the high end that tells cymbals from vocals, so its stems come out rougher. A 320 kbps MP3 is fine for practice; use WAV or FLAC for a remix.
Will the stems line up in my DAW, and add back up to the song?
+
Yes. Every stem is the full length of the song and starts on the same sample, so they line up at bar 1. Play all six at full level and you hear the original mix.
Can I split a song from a YouTube or Spotify link?
+
No. Upload the file itself. Music videos work too: MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, and MKV up to 2 GB, and the stems come back as audio.
Is it legal to split a copyrighted song into stems?
+
Splitting a song for your own practice or study is generally low-risk. Releasing or monetizing a remix built from someone else’s stems needs permission from the rights holders. This is general information, not legal advice.
Do I need this if I have Logic Pro’s Stem Splitter?
+
If Logic’s stems sound clean enough on your track, you may not. Use this one when you are not on a Mac, want the stems on another device, or want to compare results on a hard mix before you commit.
