New song

So one more song in a double version. I apologize in advance to those who are much better at Synthesizer V PRO than I am and can A.I. to embellish with singing, any world hit, while I just present only my songs. Of course, even those who perform their songs with Synthesizer V PRO also surpass me by a lot. But then again, I enjoy it and I also sing my songs myself. I don’t consider myself a good singer, so I try to sell what I have and I’m happy about it. I was gifted with a decent range and the ability to extend it into deeper notes, so I reworked the song into the E1 – F4 range, (the version for the female singer, which is Solaria, is G3 – C5). I sing the male range, but so that it can be listened to, I take singing lessons with a teacher who can work miracles. So far, I have put Asterian in the role of lead singer, and the vocals are sung by Kevin and Ninezero, who will be replaced by my friends who can sing and surpass me for live singing.

The second demo is with Solaria and the vocals are again Kevin and Ninezero. I started writing that song for a female singer, and in the song she imagines herself silently witnessing a fashion show of cats on the roof, and the moon nods wisely to them.

For me, Asterian is a great singing partner, but the teacher is Eric Hollaway, but I’m not very good with Solaria, so I’ll have to find a live singer to give me feedback. Luckily, I used to write lyrics for female singers, so maybe they won’t leave me and help me. I sing all my songs later by myself and with my friends who sing better than me. Even before this double version, I have one more song, also in a double version in the post “My old song in new version” about three days earlier. One version is Asterian and the other version I used was my version from 2008, which I spoke (not sang) in a Growl style. He used the base (accompanying) from this year.

Acknowledged your message.
I just found out that you are making great work.
I also think that “vocal is the most important” in rock and pop music. I’m not very good at singing either. I was in a band in London. The first female singer in the band I formed with had the best chemistry. The second band had good female vocal, but she was selfish and demanding. I think SV is really useful. SV is also good at not being selfish. I also have vocal software that I bought but don’t use much. Ninezero and Yuma. Keep in touch,gauzde.

I haven’t used Ninezero as a solo singer, but some songs by other users are successful with it, for example in Ozzy Osborne’s song. I use it either as a second voice or for polyphonic vocals. I don’t have a Yuma and I’m not thinking about buying it yet. I have from male A.I. singers Asterian, Kevin, Jun and Ninezero and I’m waiting for Saros. For female singers, I have Solaria and Mai and I would like Natalie and Cong Zheng, I am not thinking about the other singers yet, although they are good and a song could definitely be written for them. Otherwise, I have almost all the singers that can be downloaded for free and I sometimes try them and they are inspiring to me.

To my knowledge, Solaria is very useful English female vocal but it is not available through dealers in the country I live. (They offer customer support )

I like working with the Solaria voicebank. I really wanted a singer with a British accent, but now I adapt my songs for an American singer. It’s an interesting challenge :slight_smile:

I haven’t got any of the other voicebanks yet because I’m trying to create a consistent sound and style.

I am also used to dealing with real singers. It takes me much longer to work with Synth V, but it’s worth it!

I bought Solaria from Dreamtonics with Synthesizer V Pro and I also bought Kevin in addition. I later bought Asterian from Eclipted Sounds and after that from Dreamtonics Ninezero. My last purchase was from Audiology - Jun. I’m happy with all of them, but I’ve had Synthesizer since January of this year, so I’m still learning. I’ve been making music on the computer for over twenty years and sometimes I create vocals through Kontakt or Opus (East West) in DAW - Studio One 5 (I started with Studio One later - from version 2). I do a lot of instruments through midi and virtual instruments, but in the early stages of work I mostly use RealBand from PGMUSIC, but I don’t directly use their instruments designed by them for the style, and I intervene in the notes according to my feeling. I played acoustic guitar for about 50 years, but after contracting shingles, my left ring finger is numb.

Good work Gauzde keep it up . FWIW I think you need to turn down the backing instruments its overpowering what we really need to hear ie the soloists vocals. that the whole point of SV usage

Its the kind of sly trick vendors make for their vocal products as a sales promo gimmick, but I also understand that they must cloak their voices otherwise they will get sampled and stolen

I approved the ratio of “voices” to “instruments” to a friend - the owner of the well-known studio “3bees” in our country and to my friend who has professional experience for more than 30 years. I can write a Czech text, write a melody and harmony, and arrange and create accompaniment at my amateur level, where sometimes I succeed more and sometimes less. For a good sound, I go to my friend’s studio, I see and understand what he is doing, but I don’t have his ears. In both versions of the same song, I have the same ratios, only where Solaria sings, I added the volume of the vocals, which are virtual vocals outside Syntesizer V Pro, but done through Kontakt and Opus (East West). I’ve had a synthesizer since the new year (this year), so amplifying “SV” voices would reveal that with A.I. singers I’m still learning how to work with them, but I consider your comment useful. I’m working on more songs and I’m going to work more on the one. Here I will have (I already have) a four-part (I bass, two friends tenor and the singer will be a soprano) and my friends, who are better singers than me, approved the four-part. I can do it a bit with Asterian, but I have a big problem to make interesting tenor parts and their two voices ( Kevin - Jun ) and they ( my friends ) don’t like Kevin and Jun’s singing. They sing it better. But all the notes remain and are ok for them. I haven’t contacted the singer yet. Friends are also affected by their A.I. imperfect Czech. I want to sing all my songs live with my friends.

Indeed you are aiming for a marriage between innate musical ability and AI techno. Its similar to the aspirations of ChatGPT churning out poetry, lyrics, play scripts, murder mystery plots etc. Such fear of AI taking over and controlling the world has been much pasted around in alarmist media (whose motivation is solely to ramp up audience follower figures at any cost as it equates to advertising revenue). So we have a plethora of Nomans (No Musical Ability Needed) pumping out EDM drug fuelled garbage all made so easily available to any dumb spotty nerd to produce - black clouds of despair envelope me till I turn to my studies of early Gregorian Chant of 1000 years ago and marvel at the precursor of counterpoint in their 4 part choral harmony. Now they were astonishingly prescient not realising they discovered the essence of European musical conventions as we came to know. It was all white notes back then and the mysterious Greek Modes starting with C3 Ionian etc Black keys (aka accidentals) werent applied back then. Musicologists always seem to convert these scales to theC3 chromatic sequence, when in fact scales were generated by starting 8 white note octave scales from C,D,E etc Ionian Doric Phrygian etc Modes - Reference One.

Basically, it’s ok, but I look at artificial intelligence as a great helper, but my friends - they don’t like listening to “A.I. singing.” and he pretends not to be. I also listen to techno, but mostly I try to make music with the instruments of the band, even though I have an excess of those instruments in the mix, so after considering what each one brings me, I throw some out, others play in smaller sections and in the studio I move with dynamics každé stopy. It’s a great collaboration with Asterian, because he can growl tones in the octave C1 - C2 (in our country it’s called counter octave). This style doesn’t use classic vocal cords, but so-called secondary vocal cords (they’re also called false vocal cords). This style is mastered by Eric Hollaway and Asterian can do it from him. And for me it’s a great tool, because this style requires good intonation, and the Asterian intonates perfectly even in this octave. I have problems with the intonation of new songs, the problem is always in higher positions as well as in deep bass positions. My friends intonate well and learn quickly. One advantage I have from them is that I remember the pitch tones quite accurately, and I remember the note right before I sing it. That’s why I have Asterian sing the notes, the ones that are problematic for me and after a while I remember them so that I also intonate well and unlike my friends, I also go to a great singing teacher.

Google translator takes twice as much time (forces me to make constant corrections) before it translates at least approximately as I want and sometimes it misses quite an important word. So I’m sorry that sometimes it’s hard to understand me.
