AI In Music Production
Published: August 14, 2025.
For quite some time, AI had kept it's grubby little hands out of the music production world. Now, a good percentage of the plugins (a plugin is a piece of software you can "plug in" to an audio track to add effects or generate audio) I see are advertised as "using AI". From reverb removers (yes, that's right, you can now remove the reverb from an audio recording), to EQ analysers. Today we'll focus on stem separation.

Vetiver: Monitoring Models in Production
Published: October 31, 2024.
Part 3 in our series of blogs on vetiver for MLOps. Having previously introduced the modelling and deployment steps of the MLOps workflow, we now consider the maintenance of a model in production. The monitoring process involves adding a date column to our data, scoring our model at regular time intervals, and checking for signs of model drift over time as the data evolves.
Vetiver: Model Deployment
Published: June 20, 2024.
Part 2 of our series of blogs on vetiver for MLOps. In this post, we demonstrate how to deploy a machine learning model to production using Docker, Posit Connect, and SageMaker. Docker allows developers to bundle application code with necessary dependencies, simplifying deployment. We outline the process of creating a Dockerfile with the {vetiver} package and running the model locally. Additionally, we show how to publish the model to Posit Connect and SageMaker for broader accessibility.
Vetiver: First steps in MLOps
Published: June 13, 2024.
Part 1 of our series of blogs on vetiver for MLOps. This post introduces MLOps and its integration into the traditional data science workflow, focusing on continuous model deployment and maintenance. It demonstrates automating data importation, creating a model with {tidymodels}, and using {vetiver} to store and deploy the model. The process includes creating an API with {plumber} and deploying it locally. Finally, it verifies the API functionality, setting the stage for future production deployments. description: Part 1 of our series of blogs on vetiver for MLOps.
