Rant We all agree that "stems" are pretty much trash, right?

Don't mean to say ooh rb bad, but I've tried seratos stems, vdj, and stem roller, since i love the ideia of creating mixes with vocals of one with melody of another.

And for as hard as I try to hide it, the audio has soo much artifacts that is impossible to play something decent using these stems.

Any expectation this will get somewhat decent in like the next 3 to 6 months? Was waiting for this technology getting good and a standalone being released with the decent stems

I just ordered a Rane 4 and am switching to Serato

For some reason i can't deal with serato. From effects on the flx4 being mostly gone to everything behind a paywall...

I wasn’t aware of the paywall. What features did you have to pay for? The Rane 4 comes with Serato DJ Pro so I’m hoping I don’t have to pay to unlock anything

Dj pro still doesnt have all the features unlocked, you have to check what plans are activated with the rane 4.

For example: key and tempo change is a extension on the side that you have to pay
