Drum Grabber

The cleanest drums out of any song.

Drop in a song. Drum Grabber splits the stems, then pulls out every kick, snare, hat, clap, perc and 808, cleaned up and rebuilt from every time it plays. Then it hands you a step sequencer, the song's own groove and a kit you can sell.

Whether you're making drum kits to sell, or you just want fresh drum bounces for your next beat, it gets you there in minutes.

Watch it work

Grab. Rebuild. Sequence.

It lifts every hit out of the song, rebuilds it clean, then drops it straight into the step sequencer.

Made for

Kit makers and beat makers

01

Making drum kits

Pull the drums from your own beats and stems, rebuild them clean, and export a kit with names, keys, matched levels, round robins and a sampler patch. Ready to sell.

02

Fresh drum bounces

Just want new drums for tonight's beat? Grab a song, pick a genre pattern or click your own in, hit Vary, and drag the loop straight into your DAW.

03

Flipping a sample

Lift the drums out of a sample you've cleared, keep the song's swing, and play them back on your own pattern or from MIDI.

How it works

Song in. Clean kit out.

1

Drop in any song

An MP3, WAV, whatever you've got. Drum Grabber splits the stems first with the same AI behind the big stem splitters, so the vocals and music are gone before anything is cut.

2

Every drum, cleaned and rebuilt

Each kick, snare, hat, clap, perc and 808 comes out on its own. Every time a sound plays in the song gets lined up and stacked, so what's left is the clean drum, not the song.

3

Play it, flip it

A step sequencer that works like FL's, the song's own pattern and groove, 13 genre patterns, and Vary for a fresh take.

4

Drag it out or export a kit

Drag any sound or the whole loop into your DAW with the FX on, or export a named, level-matched kit that's ready to sell.

Under the hood

Three passes to the cleanest drum

Most rippers just cut a slice of the song. Drum Grabber splits it, cleans every hit against every other time it plays, then rebuilds it.

1

AI stem split

Demucs, the AI model behind most stem splitters, runs inside the plugin. The drums and the bass come out on their own stems, so the vocals, melodies and pads are gone before a single sound is cut.

  • Drum and bass stems, split on your computer
  • Saved, so the same song opens in seconds next time
2

Cleaned and mixed

A song plays the same snare dozens of times. Every take is lined up to the sample, level-matched and stacked, so the drum adds up and whatever was under it cancels out. Where a hat lands on a kick, the kick is taken out of it. Each drum then gets a mix made for its type, with EQ, punch, compression and warmth.

  • Every take stacked, the bleed cancelled
  • Overlapping drums taken out of each other
  • A mix made for kicks, snares, hats or 808s
3

Rebuilt

Then each one-shot is rebuilt from all of those takes. Anything that isn't the drum gets stripped out, the attack stays sharp, and a tail that was cut off by the next hit is grown back. A blend slider on every sound lets you go from the clean grab to the full rebuild.

  • Rebuilt from every take in the song
  • Tails repaired, exactly one hit
  • Blend: clean grab ↔ rebuilt
Inside

See it in action

Grab

Grab a song, get a kit

Drop the song on the bar. Every sound comes out sorted by type, cleaned and rebuilt, playing the song's own pattern.

  • Kicks, snares, hats, claps, percs and 808s
  • The song's pattern and tempo
  • Drag any sound or the loop into your DAW
Rebuild

Hear it three ways

Flip between the hit as it sat in the song, the clean grab and the rebuilt sound, then blend between them on every drum.

  • In song / Grabbed / Rebuilt A/B
  • A blend slider per sound
  • Rebuilt from every take in the song
FX

Shape every drum

EQ you draw on the graph, over the sound's own spectrum, plus Grit, Squash and Fresh Air. Every export and drag includes them.

  • Parametric EQ on the graph
  • Grit, compression, fresh air
  • Post-FX exports
Sequence

Click it in, or pick a genre

An FL-style step sequencer. Click steps in, or load a genre pattern played with the drums from your song, then hit Vary for a new take on it.

  • 13 genre patterns, 4 bars each
  • Rolls, slides and 808 notes
  • Vary, Fill, four patterns and chains
Minutes, not hours

Stop chopping drums the hard way

By hand

  • Find a quiet bit of the song and hope the kick isn't under a vocal.
  • Chop it by hand, then EQ out the bassline that's still on it.
  • The 808 is buried in the bass stem, so you never get it clean.
  • Name 30 files one by one, and they all sit at different levels.

An afternoon per song, and the drums still have the song on them.

With Drum Grabber

  • Stems split first: no vocals, no music on your drums.
  • Every take of a sound stacked into the cleanest version of it.
  • 808s pulled from the bass stem, with their key and the line they played.
  • A kit with names, keys, matched levels, round robins and a sampler patch.

A clean, named kit in a couple of minutes.

Everything in it

More than a drum ripper

Stems first

Demucs, the AI most stem splitters use, runs inside the plugin. Drums and 808s are split out before a single sound is cut.

Cleanest version of every drum

Producers reuse the same sample, so every repeat is lined up and stacked. The drum adds up, everything else cancels out.

Solo one-shots

When a hat lands on a kick, the hat is taken out. Tails that got cut off by the next hit come back.

808s, in key

The 808 comes out of the bass stem with its root note and the line it played. Play it from MIDI with glide.

Round robins from the real takes

The song played that snare 30 slightly different ways. Use them as round robins or velocity layers.

The song's feel

Its swing, push and accents, captured and ready to put on any pattern.

A sequencer that feels like FL

Left click to add, right click to remove, drag to paint. Four patterns, chains, Vary and Fill buttons, undo.

Genre patterns

Hip hop, trap, UK drill, garage, amapiano, afrobeats, afro drill, house, dembow, jersey club, baile funk, D&B and lo-fi, played with the drums from your song.

A kit that's ready to sell

Names with the drum's character and key, matched loudness, round robins, an SFZ sampler patch, loops and MIDI.

FAQ

Drum Grabber questions

What is Drum Grabber?

Drum Grabber is a drum extractor plugin. Drop in any song and it splits the stems with AI, then pulls out every kick, snare, hat, clap, perc and 808 as a clean one-shot, ready to use in your beats or to sell as a drum kit.

How do I extract drums from a song?

Load Drum Grabber (or open the app) and drag the song onto the bar at the top. It splits the drum and bass stems, finds every hit, cleans and rebuilds each sound, and lays them out in a step sequencer with the song's own pattern. Drag any one-shot or the whole loop straight into your DAW.

How is it different from a stem splitter?

A stem splitter gives you the whole drum track. Drum Grabber goes further: it finds each drum hit, stacks every time that sound plays so the bleed cancels out, removes other drums that land on top of it, repairs tails that were cut off, and hands you single, clean one-shots.

Can it get the 808 out of a song?

Yes. 808s are pulled from the bass stem, with their root note and the line they played, so you can play the 808 in key from MIDI with glide.

Does it work in FL Studio and Ableton?

Yes. It's a VST3 and AU plugin, so it works in FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Studio One, Reaper, Cubase, Bitwig and any DAW that loads VST3 or AU. There's also a standalone app. Mac (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows.

Can I make and sell a drum kit with it?

Yes. Export a kit with every sound named by its character and key, matched loudness, round robins, an SFZ sampler patch, loops and MIDI, or add the sounds to a pack you already have. Grab from your own beats, stems and sample packs, or music you have the rights to.

Can I just make new drum bounces with it?

Yes. Grab a song, load one of 13 genre patterns (trap, UK drill, afro drill, afrobeats, amapiano, jersey club, UK garage, house, dembow, baile funk, D&B, boom bap and lo-fi) or click your own in, hit Vary for a new take, and drag the loop out as a WAV with the FX on.

How long does a song take?

The first time, a minute or two while the stems split. It's saved after that, so opening the same song again takes seconds. The AI models download once, the first time you use it.

Is it a subscription?

No. Pay once and it's yours, with free updates. Your serial works on one computer; message KYXXX if you move.

Can I use the sounds I grab?

Grab drums from music you own or have the rights to, like your own beats, stems or sample packs. Respect other people's copyright.
