Six drum files
The drum kit splitter names kick, snare, crash, toms, ride, and hh. Six drum files let you ride a tom fill or a crash splash without moving the whole kit.
Drum Kit Splitter
A drum kit splitter writes kick, snare, crash, toms, ride, and hh as six drum files. Solo ghost notes, hat chatter, and crash splashes on their own faders.

Solo kick for the pulse. Solo snare for ghost notes and backbeats. Then isolate hi-hat chatter. The drum kit splitter writes six drum files so you can rebuild the pocket piece by piece.

How to use this mode
Leave Drum Kit selected, then upload a full mix or a drums file. An online drum kit splitter job is a common next step after you already hold a whole-kit stem.
- 1
Leave Drum Kit selected
Drum Kit stays selected on this page. The drum kit splitter is ready to write six drum files from a full mix or from a drums file you already pulled.
- 2
Add a mix or a drums file
A full song works. A drums file works too. Many people split a drum stem here after a whole-kit pass, then open kick and snare on their own.
- 3
Solo each kit piece
Use this pass to split kick and snare, then check toms, crash, ride, and hats. Mute one piece to hear how the pocket changes.
In this mode

Online drum kit splitter
The online drum kit splitter previews every piece in the browser. Solo ride pings. Mute crash. Hear the pocket before you download.
Isolate hi-hat
Use isolate hi-hat to hear 8th-note chatter and open-hat lifts on hh. Mute hats to check kick and snare time on their own.
Who it is for
Who can benefit
Drummers, beat makers, and mix engineers use the drum kit splitter to study timing, swap a kick sample, or ride crash and ride on separate faders.
Drummers
Study the snare pattern from its own file. Hear ghost notes and rim clicks. Practice the fill on toms with crash and ride parked on the side.
Beat makers
Swap a kick sample and keep the rest of the kit. Split kick and snare first, then layer a new punch under the original groove.
Mix engineers
Ride the crash file on its own fader. Duck ride under a vocal. Keep toms in the fill and leave kick and snare at the center.
Teachers
Hand a student the kick, snare, and cymbal files. Keep the remainder for time. Talk through the kit after each stem plays.

What people say
“I muted hats and kept kick so the pocket opened up. The drum kit splitter gave me six drum files I could ride one by one.”
“I replaced the kick and kept the snare pocket. Six files made the swap clean. I still hear the original hats and toms around the new punch.”
“Crash and ride on their own made the chorus easier to ride. I ducked ride under the vocal and left kick and snare in the center.”
