## What it is
A set of AI-enabled effects, generators, and analyzers for Audacity, powered by Intel OpenVINO running fully locally on CPU, GPU, or NPU. It includes music stem separation, noise suppression, MusicGen music generation, Whisper transcription, and audio super resolution.

## Use cases
- separate a song into vocals drums bass and other stems
- remove background noise from audio recordings
- generate music snippets or continuations of existing audio
- transcribe spoken audio into a label track in audacity
- upscale low quality audio for better clarity
- run AI audio effects offline without cloud services

## When to choose
- you use Audacity and want AI audio effects that run locally
- you have Intel hardware with GPU or NPU acceleration
- you need offline transcription or music generation without sending audio to the cloud

## When to avoid
- you use audio editors other than Audacity
- you need macOS support
- you lack Intel OpenVINO-compatible hardware or want cloud-based AI audio tools
