Re: AI Singing Technology

Synth V and the Solaria vocal pack are pretty impressive, this is significantly less artificial sounding than Vocaloid totally, I associated Vocaloid with manga singers, as previously posted by PP and was astonished [after the SOS review prompted ] by western pop music covers like ..

Re: Finding a suitable laptop

There are ranking lists for DPC latency on the web, eg https://www.notebookcheck.net/DPC-Latency-Ranking-Which-laptops-and-Windows-tablets-offer-the-lowest-latency.504376.0.html I dont know if that's uptodate. Looks like DPC varies very much on a model basis as a series like "HP Pavillion"...

Re: Cakewalk Sonar, the circle is complete

I must switch to my back up disk [Nov version of cakewalk] and see how long / if it asks for a re-authorisation.

Re: Are you TONE DEAF or MUSICALLY GIFTED?

Another question that puzzles me relates to rhythm. Merlyn gave some stats on people with and without perfect/relative pitch, but I sometimes encounter people who seem completely incapable of beating time - it seems such a basic instinct to me, but clearly not universal. yeah, its what they get the...

Re: Any synth that really sounds different

I sold my FS1r and bought a MODX. The MODX/Montage do a lot of what the FS1r can do but does it with a 7" touch screen, easy sequencing and more polyphony. Also included is an AWM2, sample playback, synth engine.

Re: The Sounds of Natsuiro no Nancy

probably its just the usual equipment but played in a different style, with different cultural references. the Yello Magic Orchestra use the same equipment as other musicians but create a different vibe.

Re: Effectively Testing Out Ideas

The other thing to be aware of is that round-wound strings will eat your bow. The horse hairs will get trapped in the string and snap regularly. true for cymbals too, maybe all metal things that are slightly rough.
