DrumShell vs BackBeat

DrumShell turns any song into a private drum practice rig. Drop in a track. In about three minutes, the drums come out clean — ready to slow down, loop, and drill against. Built for drummers who practice with sticks in hand and a kit in the room, not for casual listeners. — THE INSTRUMENT — • Isolate the drums from any song. Practice along with the kit alone, or mute it and play the part yourself. • A-B Loop. Drag two markers on the waveform and lock onto the bar that's been beating you. Loop tight, drill loud. • Variable speed, 0.7× to 1.5×. Pitch stays musical. Slow down a fill and walk it back up. • Multi-stem mix. Solo the drums, mute them, or balance every stem independently — bass, vocals, other. • Metronome locked to the song's BPM. Auto-detected during separation. • Offline-first. Once a song is loaded, no network needed. Practice in the basement, the green room, or the back of a van. — BUILT LIKE GEAR, NOT A TOY — Hardware-studio aesthetic. Dark chassis, indigo readouts, JetBrains Mono on every readout. Oversized touch targets so you can hit them with a stick in your hand. No tutorials, no upsell modals between you and the next loop. — FREE — • 3 separations per week • Up to 5 saved projects • 2-stem mode (drums + everything else) — PRO ($7.99/month or $49.99/year) — • 25 separations per week • Unlimited saved projects • A-B Loop • Waveform zoom • 4-stem and 6-stem modes (drums, bass, vocals, other — plus extended HD stems) — WHO IT'S FOR — Intermediate to advanced drummers drilling specific passages. If you've ever wished a song had no drums so you could play the part yourself — or wished it had only drums so you could shadow the part — this is the tool.
