Frequently Asked Questions
What do I get after processing?
Each job returns downloadable files for the output you selected. Depending on the task, that can include an editable Guitar Tab file, with Guitar and Backing track audio added for full-mix Tab jobs; stem audio packs; DAW-ready MIDI; and PDF score drafts + editable MusicXML.
What audio formats are supported?
MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A/AAC, OGG, AIFF, and most common formats. If something needs conversion, the app handles it automatically.
How is processing handled?
Jobs run through Music Demixer's secure cloud service to generate your outputs quickly and reliably. You upload once, then download the files for your workflow.
Is there a free plan?
Start with one Free Preview job, including downloads from a representative segment. Buy a 5-job Pack or subscribe to Pro to process more jobs and download full-length results.
Can I isolate drums from a song online?
Yes. Upload a mixed song, then export the drum layer or the separated kit pieces for practice, sampling, remixing, or production work.
Can it split kick, snare, toms, and cymbals separately?
Yes, when the source separates cleanly. Bleed and dense cymbal wash can blur the boundary between kit pieces, but clear studio mixes usually give the best split.
Can I use it as a drum separator for sampling or practice?
Yes. Use it to isolate the drum layer, study the groove, build loops, or pull out kit pieces for practice and sample prep.
Can I export Drum MIDI?
Yes. Drum Kit transcription includes Original Timing Drum MIDI and Beat-Aligned Drum MIDI. Use a drum-only recording for direct transcription, or start from a full mix to also receive Drums and Without Drums audio. PDF and MusicXML remain included as score draft files.
What audio works best for drum isolation?
Clear drum transients with less room reverb work best. Live recordings, distorted masters, and mixes with heavy cymbal bleed are harder to separate cleanly.
Choose the Drum Output You Need
Use Drum Kit to isolate the complete drum layer, split individual kit pieces, or create editable Drum MIDI. Start from a full song when drums need separating first, or use a drum-only recording for direct transcription.
Full drums or individual kit pieces
Export the drum layer for practice, sampling, or remixing, or separate kick, snare, toms, and cymbals when you need control over individual pieces.
Create DAW-ready Drum MIDI
Drum MIDI for DAWs is the primary drum transcription output. Drum-only recordings can go directly to Drum MIDI; full mixes can separate the drum layer first, then return drum audio plus Drum MIDI. PDF and MusicXML appear as extra score draft files.
What affects the split
Clear studio transients usually separate better than room-heavy live recordings. Dense cymbal wash, distortion, and microphone bleed can blur kit-piece boundaries. If you also need vocals, bass, piano, guitar, or Other, choose Stem Separation.
Split Drums or Create Drum MIDI
Export drums, kick, snare, toms, cymbals, Drum MIDI, and score draft files from a full song or drum recording.
