Are you referring to "stem mixing
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_mixing_and_mastering>"?
A good collection of stems would be nice to offer to the users. We could
offer them on our site for download (we have an area dedicated to downloads
already), but we'd need someone to manage them as the stems often become
dated.
>From my experience, stems usually accompany a promotional competition and
tend to be most popular around the release of a track. Also, good stems
usually are released by the musicians themselves and tend to carry a
non-CC0 license (attribution is usually required and most competitions in
some way prohibit certain use of their material).
Also, remixes are a small portion of what our users aim to achieve when
using the software, so if we decide to offer stems as downloads, we may
better spend our time actually creating the sample pack download add-on
that was pretty much abandoned, and include an area for these types of
longer stem mixing tracks.
Lastly, we need to be mindful of how awful our sample-track implementation
is currently. Until that's redone with the 2.0 release (or onward) we
should exercise a bit of hesitation before encouraging track-based mixing
with... well.. the AudioFileProcessor :)
