PlayStems plays multiple audio stems in sync on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Import one or more audio files into a song, or split a mixed track on your device, then rehearse or perform with each part under your control. Give every song a title and artist. In the mixer, set volume, mute, solo, and balance for each stem, and adjust the master level. Change speed and pitch while the song is playing, scrub the waveform, and loop a marker range until the section sits. Stem splitting runs on your device. A mixed track becomes vocals, bass, drums, and other. It needs a supported device with at least 4 GB of memory: iPhone 13 or newer, iPad Pro 2018 or newer, iPad Air 2022 or newer, or a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer). Audio is not uploaded.
