What it is
Peel Stems 2 is an AI-powered real-time stem separation plugin from zplane that splits mixed audio into drums, bass, vocals, and other stems inside your DAW as it plays. It processes with as little as 245ms of latency at 44.1kHz, about 49% faster than the original Peel, so you can work with isolated stems without bouncing tracks or uploading files anywhere.
Who it's for
Remixers, mashup producers, DJs, and mastering engineers who need to pull individual elements out of a finished mix, plus sound designers looking for fast, in-the-box source separation.
Key features
- Real-time stem separation into four groups with no file uploads or external processing required
- The Peel Focus EQ isolates specific frequency ranges and stereo content within a stem
- A Soundfield Display visualizes frequency and stereo information for quick, visual editing decisions
- Mute, isolate, or route individual stems to separate outputs for further processing in your DAW
