WTF? Is that a computer singing? Or an existing vocal snapped to a midi track?
you basically type the words and she sings it..so its computer generated...they did use a real singer to make the vst...as far i understand,...but still you type the words and she sings it
There is a lite version which is free so i downloaded it tonight. The free version is standalone, have to pay for pro version with vst. I just want to see what its about, i am interested.
It took me a while to figure a few things out. I got a voice installed and loaded into a project. I entered some items which are “words”, don’t know yet if they can be phrases. You enter them into basically a midi like editor and edit the words and play it and the voice sings. I believe its a single voice only in free version.
You can import midi and render and output audio.
You can set some characteristics of the voice.
You can set bpm.
There seems to be enough there to get audio back into reaper. I am lazy about writing lyrics, this seems fun to me. This certainly takes more effort than using the vsti within reaper it would seem, i just want to see more what it can do before i spend money.
This is all based on about an hour session of installing and playing with.

We were completely blown away by the sound and articulation possibilities of Solaria. They did a great job and I'm excited to see what voices will follow.
How about a voice bank from The Weeknd? How exciting to live in these times...
I'd like to try and break it one day, see how it reacts to nonsense words and glitch effects, randomised MIDI with probability percentages for instance. Could sound fantastic. The first sounds that pop in my head are the tape voice splicing from Eno/Byrne's My Life in the Bush of Ghosts. It could be give some real interesting effects, otherworldly voices, happy accidents a go go.
And yeah, as soon as I saw the thread title, I wondered how long it would be until boomer town showed up I can sing, I've hired singers, and I would again, but it doesnt mean this isnt fascinating to me and highly useful to some and inevitable in its existence.
Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
