WHAT IS STEMS?
As an open multi-track audio format, Stems enhances creative possibilities for producers and live performers. A Stem file contains a track split into four musical elements: A drums stem, a bassline stem, a melody stem, and a vocal stem for example.
The Stem format provides the ability to freely interact with a track’s different musical elements. Each ‘stem’ can be controlled independently to create instant new mixes, mashups, instrumentals, a cappellas, and more.

AUDIO QUALITY
Is the Stem format lossless?
- The Stem format uses the mp4 framework which allows Stem files to be encoded either in AAC 256 kbps VBR or Apple Lossless audio (ALAC). The upcoming Windows 10 provides native ALAC support however previous Windows operating systems do not. Please note that any playback software used on older Windows systems needs to support ALAC itself.
What kind of compression can be used when creating a Stem file?
Stem files can be created using 256 kbps AAC encoding with an output quality just like that of iTunes for example. Despite this similarity, Stem files encoded with AAC are of higher quality since each Stem is encoded individually. This is because the net quality of each Stem part is greater than that of a single file encoded in 256 kbps.

Now for the part that I think makes this relevant to iOS musos: DJ Player Pro
MIDI CONTROL
DJ Player Pro supports all USB Class Compliant MIDI controllers and audio devices. It comes with plug-and-play support for many, and also has a fully integrated MIDI mapping editor. Use a USB hub and multiple devices to create your wildest MIDI setup.
SET YOUR MIXING STYLE
Manual beat-matching, tempo sync and beat sync are both supported. Pitch bend is available in all modes.
STEMS files work with normal iTunes methods, simply rename 65FreeStemTracks.stem.mp4 files to 65FreeStemTracks.m4a and import to iTunes. And then you can handle it like any other file, sync to your iOS device for example.

Downside? Does not currently support IAA and thus AUM, but I have emailed them.
Comments
Any chance for Link support? That would make the homerun that would be IAA support for AUM into a grand slam.
Maybe send them a request for IAA and Link...the more requests the better: [email protected]
Some get put off by 'DJ' but a four track file format which can be (1) manipulated live (2) monetized in-store, sounds like a step in the right direction
