About

The spleeter package is a wrapper for the official library Spleeter, developed by Deezer with pretrained models written in Python and uses Tensorflow. It makes it easy to train source separation model (assuming you have a dataset of isolated sources), and provides already trained state of the art model for performing various flavour of separation :

• Vocals (singing voice) / accompaniment separation (2 stems)
• Vocals / drums / bass / other separation (4 stems)
• Vocals / drums / bass / piano / other separation (5 stems)

Quick start

Make sure the reticulate package is installed and configured!

First, install the python lib:

reticulate::py_install(c("spleeter"), forge = TRUE)

Then install the package for R from Github:

remotes::install_github("gomesfellipe/spleeteR")

To use the package, just run the function bellow where <audio_file> is the name of the .mp3 file and n_stem is the flavour of separation:

spleeteR::separator(audio_path = "<audio_file>", n_stem = 2)

You should get two separated audio files (vocals.wav and accompaniment.wav) in the output/<audio_file> folder.

⚠️ For now this is the only function of the package. Feel free to add new features.
