Bounce multi-track stems into Ableton, Logic, or FL Studio

Export every pad that plays as isolated audio, straight off the hardware.

Best Friend bounces multi-track audio stems of a Scene or an entire Song directly off your EP-133 K.O. II, EP-40 Riddim, or EP-1320 Medieval, ready to open in a DAW.

These are real stems

Every pad that plays comes out isolated, built from the real samples and pad data on the hardware. This is not AI source separation guessing at a finished mix — it is the actual audio, reconstructed per pad. The stems are exact.

Supertone pads on the EP-40 Riddim are the one exception — they are synthesised on the device, so there is no audio to rebuild. They are named on the result screen and in the bounce’s Notes.txt.

Aside from FX, fader automation is included in the export, so the moves you programmed survive the trip.

What you can export

  • Individual stems — one per pad that plays. Pads sharing a mute group come out as a single stem, but stay separate in the MIDI export.
  • Group mixdowns.
  • A stereo mixdown.
  • The MIDI data from the Scene or Song.

You can bounce a single Scene or the whole Song.

Everything exports as 24-bit / 48 kHz WAV, which every DAW imports without conversion.

Into your DAW

The export is standard WAV and standard MIDI, so it opens anywhere: Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Reaper, Pro Tools, Bitwig, GarageBand. Import the stems onto their own tracks, drop the MIDI in alongside if you want to re-trigger parts with other instruments, and mix from there.

Bounces are filed in the Library next to your backups, and on Apple devices iCloud syncs them across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac — bounce on the phone, open them on the Mac.

Not the same as splitting stems

Splitting a song into stems estimates the parts inside a finished piece of audio. Bouncing exports your own arrangement from the hardware. If you want your tracks in a DAW, you want bouncing.
