I'm an (electronic mostly) composer.

I have recordings of my concerts that have some band improvisations .

I need a stem separator (I think) to create separate tracks (most are keyboard, bass , drums and some are songs with voice).

Will Tractor 4 do well for me. That's the only feature (i think) I would use.

My budget is limited <$300

thanks

    the goal is the be able to notate and edit the improvisations for performance.

    There are so many others… why choosing a program that is made for something else?

    Many software offer stem separation as a feature inside of them (included Maschine, Studio One, Serato Sample, FL,…). But in your case, I would look at those who are focused exclusively on that aspect, not a program made for something else that ALSO includes stem separation.

    There are many, some of them are online browser based services, others get installed on your computer. For the first category, I would name GAUDIO Studio (which is even free, but if I recall correctly has a limitation on clip duration). For the second, RipX allows to obtain good results and has a lot more features to manipulate the resulting stems afterwards.

    Make a search with google: you will discover a whole world of stem separators…. Online, installable, free, buyable, low price, high price, one time payment, pay for the minutes you use,…

    Logic Pro. The algorithm is pretty decent.

    It might also come in handy to produce music with it…

    Try the demo of Traktor Pro 4? That'll let you see if the stem separation will work, and you can run the demo for up to 30 minutes at a time so you should be able to test it on a selection of your tracks.

    You can download from here to try it - https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/traktor/dj-software/traktor-pro-4/free-trial

    Use Nuo Stems for instance to separate the instruments and then AnthemScore for notation.

    Traktor doesnt allow you to use the stems outside of it

    you can open the stem files with for example audacity. But it's a pain to find those files if you have a lot of them. Maybe sort by date and copy it out.

    But as there are many standalone stem apps, I would also advice not to use traktor.
