How it works

1. Drums out of the mix

Demucs, a source-separation model from Meta AI, pulls the full drum track away from the bass, vocals and everything else.

2. Kit into pieces

A second model trained only on drums (MDX23C DrumSep) splits that track into kick, snare, toms, hi-hat, ride and crash.

3. Listen, then download

Mute and solo each piece right here, then download WAVs of the pieces you want, or all of them as a zip.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. The site is paid for by ads. To keep it free for everyone, each visitor gets 3 splits a day, up to 8 minutes per song.

How long does a split take?

Usually under a minute or two for a normal-length song once a GPU picks it up. If the site is busy you may wait in line for a bit first.

What happens to my files?

Your upload is deleted as soon as it has been split. The stems are kept for 24 hours so you can come back and download them, then deleted. See the privacy policy.

Why is there some bleed between pieces?

Separation is never perfect. Hats and cymbals share a lot of the same frequencies, and reverb gets split between pieces. Lossless files (wav or flac) give cleaner results than low-bitrate mp3s. More on bleed and how to clean it up.

Can I upload any song?

Only upload audio you have the right to use: your own music, licensed material, or audio you're studying for personal practice where that's allowed. See the terms.

A piece came out silent. Why?

If a song has no ride cymbal (or no toms), that stem will be close to silent. It's marked "silent" in the mixer.
