Create your own practice track

Create Drumless Tracks From Any Song

Upload a song and let Stemelo separate the recorded drum stem from the rest of the mix. The resulting drumless track keeps vocals, bass, and other instruments together, giving you the musical context needed to perform the missing drum part. This AI drumless track maker converts your own audio rather than offering a catalog of pre-made songs.

  • Turn an uploaded song into a personal drumless version
  • Keep the original arrangement around your drum performance
  • Use the reference drums when you need to check the part

Create Drumless Backing Tracks for Practice

A drumless backing track leaves space for the drummer while preserving the rest of the song. Use backing tracks without drums for timing work, groove study, lessons, rehearsals, and full-song run-throughs. Each play-along track comes from the music you upload, not from a generic backing-track library.

  • Practice with the musical context of the full arrangement
  • Build drum play-along tracks around songs you want to learn
  • Prepare repeatable backing material for lessons and rehearsal

Convert Songs Into Drumless Music Tracks

Use the drumless track converter with an MP3 or WAV from your device. AI source separation removes the recorded drums instead of generating new music from a prompt. The same workflow can create drumless songs across rock, pop, funk, jazz, hip-hop, and other styles when you provide the source audio and have the rights needed to use it.

  • Upload MP3 or WAV practice songs up to 50 MB
  • Convert your own audio instead of browsing a track library
  • Keep the workflow focused on uploaded-song stem separation
