Hi guys,
The addition of stems has been a big upgrade to VirtualDJ.
However, i found that there are two main defects with this feature. Do you guys know any plugin to correct this, or do you know how to submits those ideas to the devs ?
1 - Stems separation quality
Even with stems preparation, the stems separations quality is... OK. But it's definitely not good enough for professional usage. I often find myself doing the stem separation by myself, which is a lot more complicated.
I suggest that the proprietary algorithm for stems separation could be improved by more powerful one, such as BS-Roformer (open source / MIT, https://github.com/lucidrains/BS-RoFormer ) --> gives great vocals / instru separation. If it was used first in the VirtualDJ current algorithme, the Acapella from virtualDJ would be absolutely amazing, way better than the other softwares.
After this first separation , virtualDJ could use an ensemble from other top open source algorithms reported on mvsep.com/algorithms could improve a lot the current proprietary algorithm.
2 - Stems separation storage
Stems are stored in pretty large mp3 files. The problem with this type of file is that it uses a lot of storage, for a poor quality.
Maybe a simple conversion to .opus file format, using the open-source ffmpeg library, would make the stems way bettter
Bests regards

It is already v2 :)
Are you still using v1?

He's probably suggesting that algorithm be used for a v3 update.
