Audacity & Audio Editors

In search for a plain and simple editor with acceptable UI Ocenaudio is worth a look. Doesn’t do everything of course but for me it’s the only editor I need. Good thing is, it’s free aka donationware.

Had a quick try of stem separation, was a bit better than I expected, the track I tried it separated the drums pretty much perfectly, bass was ok, then it lumps all the other instruments together which seemed ok, the vocals had a bit of bleed from the instruments. But overall, material dependent, I think it could be very useful.

I tried the generator and remixer but they seemed pretty much what I expected, typical AI garbage, but to be fair I only played around with them for a few minutes, so further experimentation might yield something better.

I use Reaper for all audio editing tasks, wouldn’t even consider going back to dedicated audio editor software except for maybe specific things like spectral editing. Once you’ve set up your shortcuts and macros the workflow is insanely fast.
