Booming SS uses the package name com.wluhwluh.booming.sourcesep, so it can be installed alongside the original Booming Music app.

What this fork adds:

• Separated playback for local tracks, with vocals/instrumental blend controls.
• Per-song blend memory, quick lyrics-overlay controls, and a dedicated source separation panel.
• On-device ONNX processing for the currently supported UVR MDX-Net style model.
• Model management inside the app: download from a preset URL, download from a custom URL, or import a local ONNX file.
• Separated cache management with progress, reuse, cleanup, and fallback handling.

Model files are not bundled in the APK. When no local model is installed, the app asks the user to download or import one. The app displays a SHA-256 comparison for the preset model as guidance; a mismatch is shown to the user but does not block use. Users are responsible for checking the license and suitability of any model file they download or import.
