UTAU is a free program that started out automating that manual process, and eventually grew into a much more powerful program. (It helps when the language has a limited phoneme set). Jinriki Vocaloid ("manual Vocaloid") consists of manually cutting and pasting together phonemes of a singer, and creating a new song.

The results can be very good, but it requires spending money and learning a new software program. There are a number of characters that target English, although they all seem to have accents of some sort. The editor runs around $100US, and doesn't include any voice libraries. Here's a comparison of all three programs doing "Yesterday": There's no doubt that Vocaloid can be quite good. That's very cool.ĭon, interested in using it for any songs? In any event, it plays nice with BiaB, creates musical results and is free. Unfortunately, creating equivalent voice banks for English is a much larger undertaking, because there are a lot more combinations. So there are very smooth transitions between phonemes. More sophisticated voice banks have more complex combinations - VCV and CVVC. Instead of just recording single phonemes, voice banks consist of recordings of consonants and vowels (CV) - "sa", "so", "see", and so on.

An interesting feature of Utau is that users are able to create their own voice banks instead of being locked down to using commercially released voices. Vocaloid was initially the leading software for synthetic singing, but the free Utau program has started to surpass it. There are a number of reasons that this software has taken off in Japan - the limited phoneme set certainly helps.

Plus, most of this software needs additional drivers for Japanese language support, even if you're using in English. Because Sinsy generates good performance by default from the score means that it's less cumbersome than other programs. Most synthetic singer programs use a piano roll sort of interface. So you could get a free account, upload the MIDI into Noteflight, add lyrics, and export MusicXML into Sinsy.

In lieu of that, if you haven't got a music notation program and don't want to download any software, Noteflight is a web-based program that will import MIDI and export MusicXML. Having MusicXML export (of the vocal track only) would be ideal, and I'm hoping MusicXML export gets added to BiaB in the near future. But it's "good enough" right now, and BIAB user can start working with this program right away. #197216 - 03/06/13 05:23 AM Re: Free web-based synthetic singerĪs Richard pointed out, a larger phoneme set would make this program phenomenal for English speakers. It also works with MuseScore - here's Ave Maria done in MuseScore.Īctually, with the "ze" instead of "the", Sinsy sounds a bit like Natasha Fatale. Vibrato is added automatically on long notes, and I'm impressed how well it handled tied notes on the final cadence. Fun stuff.Īnyway, breaths are automatically added after long phrases - a nice touch. The remix was done in Reaper - I started out fixing the guitar strums (they needed to be moved forward) and ended up messing around with the vocal track and Reaper's pitch correction tool. If BiaB exported MusicXML, it would have been a lot simpler!

Sinsy wasn't happy with getting multiple staffs, and I couldn't figure how to remove staffs in NotePad, so I edited it in Notion and did a bit more tweaking of the lyrics. I exported the MIDI file from BiaB and edited the lyrics in Finale NotePad. The music (including the melody) was generated by BiaB using the MIDI PNOMOOD1 style with a couple of added RealTrack guitars, although I tweaked the register of the melody in a couple places. I put together a demo using BiaB: Words Like SmokeĪnd because I can't stop leave well enough alone, here's a remix: Words Like Smoke (Mix 2) It would be nice if they modeled it using a native English speaker, but can you expect for free? On the downside, it's got a pretty distinct Japanese accent. It has a fair bit of musical intelligence, and does a good job with putting phrases together in a very musical way. It takes MusicXML files as input, and pays attention to various musical markings. Unlike Utau, it's usable without having to deal with Japanese. There are a couple features of Sinsy that make it stand out from other programs. It's a synthetic singer capable of doing a fairly good job with English. I ran across Sinsy the other day, and thought it might be a good fit for some forum members who are unable to sing.
