Not to be dismissive, but as far as I can tell, the heavy work is done by facebook's demucs and this is an electron front end to run the demucs cli (and I guess search youtube for videos to download). The demucs project page has more information.
I’m definitely happy to see more front ends for Demucs being developed and to read that it has been useful to other musicians!
We are working on the next iteration of the model, and with more sources, hopefully released by the end of the year :)
If you are interested in this research you can follow my Twitter (@honualx) or star the Demucs repo.
Is there any chance you can disentangle guitar and keyboard? I work a lot with Grateful Dead music and I'd like to be able to pull jerry's guitar out from the keyboard from live shows. Similarly, it would be cool if you could parse shpongle into its consituent tracks, but I think that's probably impossible.
If I didn't know who did the real work and benefitted a lot from this tool, I'd give to StemRoller in proportion to my gratitude -- which I'm sure others are liable to do.
How about saying so above the fold?
Saying so and suggesting an alternative isn't being pedantic.
It does seem rather disingenuous that your replies make no mention of admission for making a factually incorrect statement in the first reply.
Not a big deal to me personally, but it is not surprising that some people see this as being petty.
To the downvoters above: is a "thanks" to a correcting comment not enough on HN?
Also, was it rude to say hiding content "below the fold" is a design problem?
This is a very odd thread to me - like I was being chased down by pedants who are calling me pedantic.
