## What it is
Open-Unmix is a PyTorch deep learning reference implementation for music source separation, with pre-trained models that split pop music into vocals, drums, bass, and other stems. It is designed as a research baseline with reproducible results on the MUSDB18 dataset.

## Use cases
- separate a song into vocals drums bass and other stems
- remove vocals from a music track
- extract instrument stems from audio files
- baseline model for music source separation research
- train custom source separation models on own data
- speech enhancement with pretrained umxse model

## When to choose
- you need a well-documented, peer-reviewed reference implementation for source separation research
- you want ready-to-use pretrained models for stem separation in Python/PyTorch
- you want reproducible results on MUSDB18

## When to avoid
- you need real-time or low-latency separation in production
- you want the absolute state-of-the-art separation quality rather than a baseline
- you need a non-PyTorch framework or a GUI tool

## Facets
