Licence clarification for exact HTDemucs-6s checkpoint

#1
by possawee - opened

Hello,

We are preparing a limited local engineering trial of HTDemucs-6s for
the MIXXER project. Could you please clarify the applicable licence or
usage grant for this exact checkpoint?

Repository:
adefossez/HTDemucs-6s

Current/pinned revision:
3c5ee475be622df764938de97e4281a7b07ffa58

Artifact:

SHA-256:
d2a1745f0744721f6b8ca5bf469b67c651ea5ed1b52998cab033b2158609d411

Intended trial:

  • local engineering evaluation on authorized 30–60 second audio files
  • no cloud upload
  • no redistribution or bundling of the weights with a released
    product; local development integration and evaluation only
  • no training or fine-tuning
  • no production deployment
  • evaluation of six-stem output and local playback only

The preceding revision
053e1404489b3dc58bf718224fac4b7316de8c93
contained license: mit, while the current revision removes that field.
A historical Demucs issue also states that pretrained weights were not
covered by the source-code MIT licence and were provided for scientific
purposes.

Could you confirm:

  1. Whether we may download the exact checkpoint above and run
    local inference for this engineering trial.
  2. The licence or other terms that apply specifically to the weights.
  3. Whether product-development evaluation is included or whether use is
    restricted to academic/scientific research.
  4. Required attribution or notices.
  5. Whether commercial use and redistribution require separate permission.

Thank you.
