demucs.cpp

C++17 library that implements the inference of the Demucs v4 hybrid transformer model, a PyTorch neural network for music demixing.

It uses only the standard library and the header-only library Eigen as dependencies, making it suitable to compile and run on many platforms. It was designed for low-memory environments by sacrificing the speed of the Torch implementation.

Demucs.cpp powers my websites (https://freemusicdemixer.com, https://pro.freemusicdemixer.com) and now my new Android app Music Demixer to bring Demucs to your pocket!

See my other project umx.cpp for a similar library for Open-Unmix.

Library design

It uses libnyquist to load audio files, the ggml file format to serialize the PyTorch weights of htdemucs, htdemucs_6s, and htdemucs_ft (4-source, 6-source, fine-tuned) to a binary file format, and Eigen (+ OpenMP) to implement the inference. There are also programs for multi-threaded Demucs inference using C++11's std::thread.

All Hybrid-Transformer weights (4-source, 6-source, fine-tuned) are supported. See the Convert weights section below. Demixing quality is nearly identical to PyTorch as shown in the SDR scores doc.

Directory structure

src contains the library for Demucs inference, and cli-apps contains four driver programs, which compile to:

demucs.cpp.main: run a single model (4s, 6s, or a single fine-tuned model)
demucs_ft.cpp.main: run all four fine-tuned models for htdemucs_ft inference, same as the BagOfModels idea of PyTorch Demucs
demucs_mt.cpp.main: run a single model, multi-threaded
demucs_ft_mt.cpp.main: run all four fine-tuned models, multi-threaded

See the PERFORMANCE doc for details on multi-threading, external BLAS libraries, etc..

Instructions

Build C++ code

Clone the repo

Make sure you clone with submodules to get all vendored libraries (e.g. Eigen):

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/sevagh/demucs.cpp

Install C++ dependencies, e.g. CMake, gcc, C++/g++, OpenBLAS for your OS (my instructions are for Pop!_OS 22.04):

$ sudo apt-get install gcc g++ cmake clang-tools libopenblas0-openmp libopenblas-openmp-dev

Compile with CMake:

$ mkdir -p build && cd build && cmake .. && make -j16
libdemucs.cpp.lib.a <--- library
demucs.cpp.main     <--- single-model (4s, 6s, ft)
demucs_ft.cpp.main  <--- bag of ft models
demucs.cpp.test     <--- unit tests

Convert weights

Set up a Python env

The first step is to create a Python environment (however you like; I'm a fan of mamba) and install the requirements.txt file:

$ mamba create --name demucscpp python=3.11
$ mamba activate demucscpp
$ python -m pip install -r ./scripts/requirements.txt

Dump Demucs weights to ggml file, with flag --six-source for the 6-source variant, and all of --ft-drums, --ft-vocals, --ft-bass, --ft-other for the fine-tuned models:

$ python ./scripts/convert-pth-to-ggml.py ./ggml-demucs
...
Processing variable:  crosstransformer.layers_t.4.norm2.bias  with shape:  (512,)  , dtype:  float16
Processing variable:  crosstransformer.layers_t.4.norm_out.weight  with shape:  (512,)  , dtype:  float16
Processing variable:  crosstransformer.layers_t.4.norm_out.bias  with shape:  (512,)  , dtype:  float16
Processing variable:  crosstransformer.layers_t.4.gamma_1.scale  with shape:  (512,)  , dtype:  float16
Processing variable:  crosstransformer.layers_t.4.gamma_2.scale  with shape:  (512,)  , dtype:  float16
Done. Output file:  ggml-demucs/ggml-model-htdemucs-4s-f16.bin

All supported models would look like this:

$ ls ../ggml-demucs/
total 133M
 81M Jan 10 22:40 ggml-model-htdemucs-4s-f16.bin
 53M Jan 10 22:41 ggml-model-htdemucs-6s-f16.bin
 81M Jan 10 22:41 ggml-model-htdemucs_ft_drums-4s-f16.bin

 81M Jan 10 22:43 ggml-model-htdemucs_ft_vocals-4s-f16.bin

Run demucs.cpp

Run C++ inference on your track with the built binaries:

# build is the cmake build dir from above
$ ./build/demucs.cpp.main ../ggml-demucs/ggml-model-htdemucs-4s-f16.bin /path/to/my/track.wav  ./demucs-out-cpp/

For the 6-source model, additional targets 4 and 5 correspond to guitar and piano.
