With Ableton Live, you have everything you need in a digital audio workstation to create a track you love. And the new Stem Separation feature unlocks new ways of working with audio files and samples.

Experiment with every element

By separating your sample into different stems, you can tweak, remix, or listen to each element. With a couple of clicks, you can split your file into:

• Vocals
• Bass
• Drums 
• Others

Powered by Music AI

Stem Separation is powered by algorithms from Music AI, the creators of Moises. It identifies four layers and splits them into different tracks with clarity and precision. Expect your sounds to be crisp, clean, and easy to manage.

No need for third-party tools

Because Stem Separation is part of Ableton Live, you don’t need to interrupt your flow and switch to third-party tools. There’s no need to worry about other software changing your bit rate or sample rate – and since everything runs locally, your creative process isn’t dependent on an internet connection.

By having it all in one place, you can ensure an accurate and seamless workflow. You can then save your samples to your Ableton library for easy access at any time.

To use the Stem Separation feature, all you need to do is:

• Open up your audio file in Live’s Session or Arrangement View, or in Live’s browser
• Right-click and select “Separate Stems to New Audio Tracks”
• Choose which stems you want separated
• Choose between High Speed or High Quality mode
• Click “Separate”
• You’ll see your separated stems as new tracks, ready to reshape and refine
