AI Stem Splitter for YouTube

Separate vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano, and more — directly inside YouTube.

Isolate Any Part, Right Under the Video

Riffloop opens in a panel directly beneath the YouTube player. Pick the instrument you want to hear, drag the loop markers to the exact bars you're working on, set the speed and key, and isolate it — without ever leaving the page.

Riffloop isolating the guitar stem from a YouTube song — an instrument selector (vocals, drums, bass, piano, guitar, solo & lead), A-B loop markers set from 0:31 to 0:41 on the waveform, plus speed and key-transpose controls beneath the video player.
Isolating the guitar from a YouTube lesson and looping bars 0:31–0:41 to practice the riff.
  1. Pick the instrument. Vocals, drums, bass, piano, guitar, or Solo & Lead — choose what to isolate or mute.
  2. Set the loop. Drag the start and end markers over the tricky section and Riffloop loops just those bars.
  3. Slow it down or change the key. Drop to 0.5×–0.75× speed and transpose into a key that fits you — no chipmunk effect.
  4. Isolate & practice. Hit isolate and the part you chose plays on its own, looping until it's yours.

Mix Every Stem in Real Time

Every part of the song lands on its own channel. Solo (S) the stem you're learning, mute (M) the ones you've already got, and ride the faders to balance the rest — then set an A-B loop and a practice speed, and the mix plays back exactly how you dialed it.

Solo, mute and balance each stem — vocals, drums, bass, guitar and piano — in real time.

What Is a YouTube Stem Splitter?

A YouTube stem splitter separates a song into its individual musical parts, allowing you to listen to vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano, and other instruments independently.

Musicians use stem splitters to:

  • 🎸 Learn guitar solos
  • 🥁 Study drum grooves
  • 🎵 Hear bass lines more clearly
  • 🎤 Remove vocals for karaoke
  • 🎹 Practice with custom backing tracks
  • 👂 Transcribe songs by ear

Unlike traditional stem separation tools that require uploading audio files, Riffloop works directly inside YouTube.
