LALAL.AI's VST Plugin doing six-stem separation fully offline changes how producers use it in a session

The LALAL.AI VST Plugin update https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bVy0Mjqx8B4 covers two changes that together change the tool's position in a professional production workflow.

Six-stem separation rather than the previous four stems means drums, bass, vocals, piano, guitar and other can each be isolated independently rather than requiring multiple processing passes or accepting that some stems are combined. For remixing, sample extraction and arrangement work, the additional separation granularity matters practically.

The fully offline functionality doing local processing without cloud dependency is the professional studio requirement that previously made web-based stem separation tools unsuitable for secure or latency-sensitive work. A plugin that runs the separation locally in a DAW session without sending audio to a cloud service changes the workflow for producers working with unreleased or client-confidential material.

The combination of six-stem separation and offline operation in a VST rather than a standalone web app is what makes this a production tool rather than a utility you use occasionally.

For music producers and audio engineers: what specific production workflow changes with six-stem offline separation that you could not achieve with the previous four-stem cloud-based approach?
