There are a lot of algorithms at MVSep now. Which algorithm to choose?
- If you need good isolated vocals or instrumental then use one of: Ultimate Vocal Remover HQ, MDX-B, Demucs3 (Model B)
- If you need good bass, drums, other: Demucs3 (Model B)
For comparsion of algorithm we use SDR (signal-to-distortion ratio) metric. The larger the metric the better the result of algorithm.
