What are audio stems?

Music stems are audio files that break down a complete track into individual mixes or instruments. This tool can extract voices and separate them, as well as instruments such as piano, drums, bass, guitar, synthesizer, and string and wind instruments into single stems.

Stems are widely used by artists for more flexibility in editing and remixes. Stem files enable the addition of track parts that best align with your video, allowing for a gradual build-up of music starting with just the drums. Stems also allow for customization of tracks by removing unwanted instruments while keeping the rest intact.

Instrumental Stem

The instrumental audio stem file will contain everything except the vocals. This stem is ideal for use as a karaoke or instrumental version of a song.
