Six-stem mixer for the 2013 album, separated with htdemucs_6s from the 16-bit/44.1kHz master. Solo, mute, and set the level of any part. 7 tracks separated this pass, each drum lane split again into five individual pieces.
RMS dB per delivered stem, measured with ffmpeg on the exact file this page serves. Silence is the correct result where the part was never played: Simple Forms and Branches on the Arrow Peak Revelation are instrumentals, so their vocal lanes are empty by design, and the band has no pianist, so the piano lane is bleed throughout.

Each drums lane split again by DrumSep MDX23C into five pieces. Values are RMS dB measured on the delivered file. A quiet lane means the piece was played quietly or not at all, which is the correct output rather than a defect.

Source was the 16-bit/44.1kHz FLAC master, not the MP3 copy. Separation ran htdemucs_6s to six lanes at 192kbps MP3. DrumSep MDX23C then split each drums lane into kick, snare, toms, hi-hat, and cymbals. Tracks 04 Cathedral Rings, 09 Clearing Life, and 10 Illumination Ritual were separated in earlier passes and were skipped here, confirmed by measuring their existing lanes rather than by trusting a filename. Playback starts every lane on one shared clock instant, so the stems stay locked to each other.
