Harmonies
E.g. for more layers from the above.
On MVSEP (or on your own) “'Use As Is' [so the mixture - your input file will be used] and 'Extract Vocals First' [so using vocal model] might be the difference between splitting a vocalist's 'double vocal' and not.” or on your own. - cypha_sarin.
Also, as a preprocessor for all vocals, experiment with panning using e.g. A1StereoControl VST2 32 bit plugin beforehand - dementia2009 (might work as a counterpart of the panning trick in UVRonline).
- becruily & frazer BS-Roformer Karaoke model (in most cases not using vocal model on the top of it is better for doubles, sometimes “it's necessary if the vocal was very, very quiet, otherwise it's extremely muddy” - rainboomdash; or check more Karaoke models)
- Stereo width feature for uvr bve v2 by setting it to 80% (it might use voc_ft as preprocessor already) - on x-minus.pro/uvronline.app
- MVSep SATB Choir (soprano, alt, tenor, bass; much better metrics than the old SATB below, and better BS-Roformer model architecture; use “a karaoke model first and then using the SATB model on the backing vocals, it tends to have less confusion and more opportunities for manual cleanup” - dynamic64).
- MVSep Choir (works for e.g. choirs buried under main vocal in e.g. pop music)
- gilliaan_bsroformer_deeffect_v1beta | yaml | Colab | MVSEP
“"work in progress" model, it's a proof of concept. (finetune of becruily's karaoke model shoutout to him, BS Roformer)
It separates lead vocal from BGVs, it acts as a De-echo/De-reverb/De-chorus/De-double, cleans out the lead. Made specifically for RVC training, it gives you the raw dry lead vocals of a mix basically. Works on full mixes too, but isolated vocals give better results.” - gilliaan
As preprocessor “My pick would be one of the Gabox models since they are usually very clean, and there are many fullness levels to choose from." - musicalman
Also, “separate the instrumentals first with a better model since the deeffect model could leave some synths, trumpets, etc.” - makidanyee
E.g. phantom center then gabox flowers v10 with phase fix” - Izzy/bitterkite
“If you want to separate layers of BGVs or remove effects from BGVs putting it straight in will do nothing and put all of it in FX stem because that's what it was trained on but separating the channels left and right makes it suddenly work. It's actually amazing” - isling
- Older public SATB choir models by Dry Paint Dealer Undr (soprano, alto, tenor, and bass - vocal harmonies) “I think it’s a great model for anyone looking to study harmonies more closely. Better than the Medley Vox model. So far, it’s the best result I’ve found" - Roberto89.
Nevertheless, it can have bleeding.
“scnet_masked model was the best in the end” - Dry Paint Dealer Undr
“I've tried the SCNet one, it's really noisy, and it has a lot of bleed, it kinda works. I can see the potential of this kind of model ngl.” - smilewasfound
“You can’t install [the VR ones] into UVR since that only supports VR v5 [and 5.1] not VR v6”
For VR6 bass and soprano model -X flag is needed.
Demucs and SCNet_masked are not compatible with UVR for now either (use MSST instead), so only regular SCNet variant can be used in UVR.
- Medley Vox (free, 24kHz SR model trained by Cyrus, Colab, local installation tutorial, more info, use e.g. AudioSR afterwards; “help[ed] me separate a few layers harmonies on one song, though I had to keep mixing certain ones back together and run them through the same model to get a cleaner result”)
- Sucial Mel-Roformer dereverb/echo model #3 called “fused”: model | yaml
- Melodyne (paid, 30 days trial) - “the best way to ensure it’s the correct voice”, or
- Hit 'n' Mix RipX DAW Pro 7 (paid/trial)
In Melodyne it is "harder to do but can be cleaner since you can more easily deal with the incorrect harmonics than RipX sometimes choses"
"every time I’d run a song through RipX I was only able to separate 4-5" harmonies
(or also)
- (prob.) Revoice Pro 5
- Mel-Roformer Karaoke (by becruily) model file (better than aufr’s model)
- Dango.ai (paid, might be still useful in certain situations)
- Choral Quartets F0 Extractor - “midi outputs, but it works”
