Hello! I’m the creator of this site, and this post describes how I use my own website to get stems from mixed songs for free.

tl;dr? watch this video:

Prepare your music files

Let’s cover two scenarios:

  • Single track: a single audio file containing the mixed song you want to demix
  • Batch of tracks: a folder containing multiple songs you want to demix

Most common audio file extensions (wav, mp3, opus, flac, webm) should work. Note that the output stems are always returned as stereo wav files with a 44100 Hz sampling rate.

First visit the home page of this site, https://freemusicdemixer.com. Once you’re on the home page, scroll down to the demixer section:

From the first column, you can select your desired components or stems. From the second column, you can select your desired quality. The underlying AI model will be chosen for you.

Note that piano and guitar stems, and qualities higher than the “low” quality, require a subscription - visit our pricing page for more info.

Demixing a single track or folder of tracks

In the next screen, you can choose to upload a single track or a folder of tracks

When your job is done and the progress bar fills up to 100%, you will have the outputs available for download. Enjoy!

Canceling a running job

At any point if you want to cancel the current run, just reload the website and restart the wizard.

Reporting bugs

If any of the above steps don’t work or result in strange outputs, I invite you to open a bug report on the project’s GitHub Issues or e-mail me directly (contact at freemusicdemixer dot com).
