About

This application uses state of the art AI and models to remove vocals from tracks. All of the models provided in this package were trained by UVR's core developers.

  • Core Developers
    • Anjok07- Model collaborator & UVR developer.
    • aufr33 - Model collaborator & fellow UVR developer. This project wouldn't be what it is without your help. Thank you for your continued support!
    • DilanBoskan - Your contributions at the start of this project were essential to the success of UVR. Thank you!

Change Log

  • v4 vs. v5
    • The v5 models significantly outperform the v4 models.
    • The extraction's aggressiveness can be adjusted using the "Aggression Setting". The default value of 10 is optimal for most tracks.
    • All v2 and v4 models have been removed.
    • Ensemble Mode added - This allows the user to get the strongest result from each model.
    • Stacked models have been entirely removed.
      • Stacked model feature has been replaced by the new aggression setting and model ensembling.
    • The NFFT, HOP_SIZE, and SR values are now set internally.
    • MDX-NET AI engine and model support
