Some weird error message when installing the bleeding edge of Demucs

[DJTonydacoder]

I tried installing the bleeding edge version of Demucs, I followed all of adefossez's instructions.

When I ran the command python.exe -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/demucs#egg=demucs, I got this message:

What does that mean? Did I do something wrong?

Just use Demucs GUI if you are new to coding

1. I know how to use Demucs through the Anaconda prompt, I'm trying to install the bleeding edge of Demucs through the python.exe -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/demucs#egg=demucs and got the error message: "The system cannot find the file specified executing command git version. Cannot find command 'git' - do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH". I need you to send me a video on how to fix this issue.
2. You still haven't given me a working solution to the --clip mode issue, all I got was the message saying there's only to options for --clip mode: clamp and rescale.
3. Does Demucs GUI use the bleeding edge of Demucs installed with python.exe -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/demucs#egg=demucs or just the standard version installed with python.exe -m pip install -U demucs?

Yes, Demucs GUI requires some latest features, so it must install the latest git version You need to install git for windows if you want to install the latest version Please run pip install -U git+https://github.com/adefossez/demucs.git to use --clip-mode none

I did everything you suggested... I followed all of adefossez's instructions, I downloaded the latest git version for Windows, I ran both pip install -U git+https://github.com/adefossez/demucs.git and pip install -U git+https://github.com/adefossez/demucs#egg=demucs, and still got the same error message...

Maybe just restart the computer? If it still doesn't work, you can just download zip and extract it and switch to this directory and run pip install -U --force-reinstall .

You need to download zip first on https://github.com/adefossez/demucs Extract it and switch to this directory Then run pip install -U --force-reinstall . You've lost the trailing dot in your last command

Please install PyTorch 2.1.2 first, following the instructions on https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/#v212

It seems that installing demucs is quite difficult for you I really suggest that using Demucs-GUI is a better choice for you as all its environment has been packed and has even more functions than the command line tool

@CarlGao4 Does your GUI version of Demucs have the --clip-mode=none option?

[CarlGao4]

Yes

[DJTonydacoder]

Yes

Thank you very much!!! This GUI is so much easier to use!!!

Have a good day

[CarlGao4]

Actually it has all the functions the original command line has, while a lot of new features are added at the same time
