TAKE IT APART.CHOP IT UP.
Quota is two desktop apps for producers who sample. Stems pulls vocals, drums, and bass out of any track. Mini turns spoken words into playable pads. Local. One-time. No cloud.
Two apps. One ecosystem.
Drop it in. Stems out.
Paste a YouTube link or drop a folder. Stems runs Demucs locally and exports WAV files, MP4 stem videos, or a ready-to-open Ableton Live 12 project. No account. No queue. No cap.
Highlight a line. Fire it to a pad.
Load any video or audio. Mini transcribes it locally with Whisper. Highlight the phrase you want, click an empty pad, and Mini word-locks the chop to the transcript. Export as WAV, captioned MP4, Ableton Drum Rack, or MPC / Force kit.
Your files never leave your machine. No uploads, no queues, no cloud credits running out mid-session.
From file to finished stems in minutes. From transcript to a full pad bank in a single session.
Pay once. Keep the app, keep the files, keep working when the internet cuts out or the company pivots.
Built in-house
Quota is what I use when I'm cutting records for LoFi Charlie and FRANKDENADA. The tools shipped because I needed them — a sampler that chops dialogue by word, and a stem separator that runs without a browser tab.
The full workflow: run a track through Stems, pull out the vocal, drop it into Mini, chop the words you want, drag pads into your session. One app hands off to the other. It's the way I build beats, packaged for anyone who works the same way.
Start with the one that matches your source.
Sampling a track? Start with Stems — it's free. Sampling dialogue? Start with Mini. If the project needs both, the handoff is already built in.
