A tool to extract drums from a mix

Yeah, but only if the drums are the only percussive instrument, as they outlined, in the jazz song. If there’s a melody or bassline like the ones they described, it may pick some of that up.

Fwiw… I’ve played with this for many years now and depending on the quality of the recording can extract a drum hit pretty well like this:

  1. EQ notch out unwanted melodic content, and then

  2. use spectral “smearing” to sort of blur/smooth the notched area.

Usually I’m not as interested in the whole drum sound tho - there’ll be something particular about the hit I want to extract and then layer it further with other sounds…
