How to remove drums from a WAV file
WAV files preserve every bit of the original recording, making them the ideal source for drum separation. DrumSplit takes full advantage of that fidelity — lossless in, lossless stems out.
Because WAV is uncompressed, files are large (roughly 10 MB per minute at CD quality). Make sure your file is under 100 MB — which covers about 10 minutes of 16-bit/44.1 kHz stereo audio.
Step-by-step
- Open DrumSplit.io. No install, no account, no download.
- Upload your WAV file. Drag and drop or click to browse. Files up to 100 MB.
- Choose your mode. Natural for recorded music, Puncher for EDM and hip-hop, Direct for drum-only WAV files.
- Wait 2-3 minutes. WAV sources take the same processing time as MP3 — the AI model works on decoded audio regardless of input format.
- Download 6 lossless stems. Kick, snare, hi-hats, toms, cymbals and a drumless music track — all as 24-bit WAV.
Tips for better results
- If your WAV is 32-bit float, it still works fine as long as it is under 100 MB.
- For very long tracks (over 10 minutes), the file may exceed 100 MB — trim or compress to FLAC first.
- The output stems import cleanly into any DAW: Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Cubase, Reaper, FL Studio.
