I'll be honest with you - I wouldn't even know what to do with user data if I collected it. I'm not great at training neural networks or understanding how to augment training with additional data.

Basically, the _only_ special thing about freemusicdemixer is that it runs client-side, because I'm better at writing C++ for a pre-trained network than I am at training new neural networks. However, it's a cool advantage so I'll keep promoting it as the distinguisher of my "product" (since I didn't create or train the underlying neural network, I just consider it a clever WASM frontend).

The operational costs are precisely $0 since it's a static website (aside from the domain registry).



Keep that mindset. Please. User data shouldn’t be your product. This is perfectly acceptable and thank you for doing this.


It is very nice to be able to compute this in our browsers without limits or registration. The results are not always perfect but already allows having good time testing remixes or doing karaoke with friends! Thanks for sharing your work.


I envisioned my site would be useful for quick and dirty prototyping - especially since the outputs are not licensed for commercial use.

Then, when one's project idea is validated, they could then used a paid stem separation service with higher quality and commercial licensing.

That's why I added some sentences on the website to solicit partnerships for targeted advertisements, to see if any pro demixing companies were interested.


That's an interesting idea. Scratch track stems while we're waiting for the approvals and delivery of final assets.
