Been using demucs for a couple of weeks now, mostly taking my early produced music which I have since lost the project files for and giving them a remix and update. Gotta say I have been blown away by how good demucs is. I installed it following the repo instructions and then created a zsh alias to run it with any file name. Eg $ai_split mySong.mp3
Wait fifteen minutes and out pops four stems, flawless so far, even been messing around with mainstream tracks and using ableton with warp applied to quickly build out remixes. Demucs is going to be /is already a game changer!
- pininja 4y agoThat’s awesome! I wonder if there are projects to create a repository of pre-split public domain music? Seems like something the internet archive could host once created.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoThis testimonial almost has me wanting to try it on an “album”[1] I recorded when I was in a “band”[2] in high school. I too lost all of the source files[3]. 1: On second thought maybe not. It has not aged well. 2: Me and another kid, with a guitar, a pre-OS X Mac, a pirated copy of Rebirth, a pirated copy of SoundEdit 16, and literally the mic that Apple used to include with (some?) Macs. I’d back-reference[1], but our equipment was not the problem. Well, except for [3]. 3: I learned my lesson: I should have been older and had a job that would afford me a backup drive, so I could sample the sounds of that dying HDD and retcon the samples into my “album”[1].
