Stem Separtion feature requires CPUs that offer AVX instructions

[Acoustica Greg]

Just FYI,

It turns out that a component of the Stem Separation feature requires AVX instruction support, and not all CPUs support AVX. We're looking into possible workarounds for this issue, but this is the reason why a few people are able to install the stem separation files correctly, but still can't use it.

Here are a few examples of processors that don't support AVX:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620
Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N3050
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 650
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 330

Note: you can google your processor's specs to see if your computer supports AVX.

Thanks to stavka for cluing us into this!

I believe there are 3 variants of AVX.

AVX, AVX512 and AVX2

Sometimes you can enable AVX in the BIOS by disabling the E-cores.

Btw. Massive X from Native Instruments also requires AVX instructions. So if you already have Massive X running, then you also have an AVX compatible processor.

Hi,

my not new machine runs with processor: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G550 @ 2.60 GHz 2.60 GHz

I use this: https://www.stemroller.com/ to split stems.
It works fine.

Thanks guys.
