MixMaster Pro vs AudioShake

AI audio separation for music, film and speech vs MixMaster Pro, which splits stems in the browser next to mix analysis and mastering. What each tool is for, and when to choose which.

Split stems

Overview

MixMaster Pro is the living Mix Intelligence platform for producers. Analyses stay in your Mix Library, revisions compare on the same mix, references save to your account, and Maya on Pro+ coaches from your bound report - connected workflows instead of one-time uploads. The same account also runs Audio Tools and Workflow Builder: AI mastering, stem splitting, karaoke, a capella, guitar chords and lyrics, Sound FX, song generation, voice cleanup, and audio restoration.

AudioShake is an AI audio separation platform that splits audio into components such as vocals, instruments, dialogue, music and effects, offered as a browser Studio, a REST API and a real-time SDK. (Details checked on AudioShake's own public pages, November 2026.)

On MixMaster Pro, stem separation is an Audio Tools job: upload a song, pick a split, and download WAV stems from the Tools library. Karaoke and A Capella use the same Credits, and Workflow Builder can chain a split with chords, lyrics or a master.

Our recommendation

AudioShake or MixMaster Pro?
