Read full description

OhmSplit is a one-time-purchase, 100% on-device stem separator for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Drop a track in, get clean stems back, preview them in a real mixer, and export — your audio never leaves the device. KEY POINTS • No cloud, no account, no data collected — separation runs entirely on your device. • 2- or 4-stem separation with a real preview mixer (gain, mute, solo). • Canonical stems stay lossless WAV or FLAC. Share a stem or mixer bounce as AAC, or as MP3 when your device supports it — originals are never replaced. • Batch queue for multiple tracks; undo and redo session mixer edits. • Tempo and key are measured on-device, and withheld when the track is too ambiguous to call. • One-time universal purchase; works offline after a one-time, consent-gated model download. WORKS WITH OHMS SAMPLE AND OHMS TERRAIN • On Mac, send a stem straight into Ohms Sample or Ohms Terrain: the file is written locally and the app opens on it. If the app is not installed, the button offers its App Store page. ALSO IN THE OHMS AUDIO WORKFLOW • Pair with Ohm Studio and OhmsGrid when you want private, on-device music creation after you have clean stems. WHAT IT IS NOT • Not a cloud stem-separation service. Your audio never leaves your device. • Not a practice studio — for slow-down, chords, and looping, use Ohms Rehearse. PRICING • One-time purchase (universal Mac + iOS). No subscription. REQUIREMENTS • macOS 14+ or iOS 17+ on Apple Silicon (iPhone or iPad).
