STEM Files allow you to interact with four different musical elements of a track independently. You
can modify these four STEM Parts individually to create spontaneous instrumentals, remixes, or
mashups. You can create transitions between musical elements STEM Part by STEM Part, or ap-
ply effects and EQ to a specific STEM Part, rather than the entire track. Furthermore, you can mix
musical elements across multiple STEM Decks, for example, taking the vocals from one STEM
File and mixing it with the beat from another.
