spleeter demo

Spleeter's own project page describes it as "Deezer source separation library including pretrained models."
My friend Megan describes it far more usefully as "a thing that separates music into drums, bass, vocals, piano and everything else in exactly the same way unbaking a cake works." (See? MUCH more useful.)
And when I heard that, I absolutely had to poke this thing around to see how it works. And I did. The track is one of my parody covers, "HTML" (a cover of AC/DC's "Highway to Hell"), recorded entirely in Logic Pro X - software drums, live guitar, bass and vocals. I've then bounced the whole thing down to an uncompressed AIFF file, fed that through Spleeter using the 4stem preset to extract vocals, bass, drums and "everything else"; you can hear the results in the video.

Heard about this a while ago, its an amazing project! would love to be able to port it to a VST. I think the main use will be the vocal tracks, once you add some effects the average listener won't be able to tell the difference.

There already are VSTs that do this. Check out iZotope RX 7 or Ozone 9 Master Rebalance.
