ARA2 skips the bounce.
If your DAW supports ARA, ReStem can read the clip's audio through the DAW the moment you add the plugin. Just press the Process button, and after it finishes, the stems appear. ARA also lets you choose the sections of your track you want to process, saving you time.
Not every DAW has ARA. It's built into Cubase, Nuendo, Studio One, REAPER, Digital Performer, LUNA, and Waveform, and on Windows also Cakewalk Sonar, Samplitude, and Mixcraft. In any other DAW, including Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, FL Studio, and Bitwig, ReStem 2 runs as a regular insert instead.
Or run it like any other insert.
Pick the live mode and the separated kit plays in real time (Pro version only). The plugin reports its delay to your DAW, so the DAW lines everything back up for you automatically.
The standalone app
Load a file or drag one in, let it process, then export the stems, plus a MIDI file if you're on Pro. It's the quickest way to prep material before a session, or to hand a client separated stems without opening a project at all.
