About

Stemly Live Multitrack

Features
Read full description

Stemly is a multitrack audio player built for live performance โ€” for bands, choirs, DJs and solo artists playing to backing tracks and showing lyrics. PLAY YOUR STEMS LIVE Load multichannel audio and route every track to its own output โ€” vocals, click, guide, instruments. Works with any USB audio interface, and without one in Headphone Stereo mode. BUILT-IN EQ ON EVERY CHANNEL A four-band equalizer on every output channel โ€” tap EQ on a fader and drag the four points on the curve. A linked stereo pair shares one EQ, and settings are saved with each song. On headphones and 2-channel outputs the EQ works on outputs 1+2, so you always hear it. JUKEBOX FOR BREAKS A separate offline player with its own queue and playlists, loop and crossfade. Loop any section of a track by marking it on the waveform. Jukebox is locked while a show song is playing, so it can never start over your performance. LYRICS, MATCHED AUTOMATICALLY Lyrics are matched to songs with the same title โ€” the right lyrics appear the moment you pick a song, even without loading backing tracks. You can use lyrics display and sharing on their own, without the player. Send lyrics over Wi-Fi to any phone, tablet or laptop on stage โ€” no app to install, just scan a QR code. CONTROL FROM ANYWHERE Connect the free Stemly Remote app and run your setlist from the other side of the stage โ€” ideal when the iPad is out of reach. (A 5G router is recommended.) BUILT FOR THE STAGE, NOT THE STUDIO One-tap mixer, volume remembered per song, a song queue with position numbers, protected STOP/PLAY, and a clear interface designed for stage lighting โ€” even at 2 a.m. after soundcheck. One-time purchase. Works on all your Apple devices signed in with the same Apple ID โ€” iPhone, iPad and Mac.
