Never heard of synth v. So I asked about it ### **What is Synthesizer V?** **Synthesizer V** (often called **Synth V**) is a high-end music production software developed by Dreamtonics that uses deep learning and AI to generate remarkably realistic singing voices. Unlike older vocal synthesizers (like the original Vocaloid) that often sounded "robotic" due to splicing together recorded samples, Synth V uses a **neural-network-based engine** to predict how a human singer would transition between notes and phonemes. ### **Key Features** * **AI Pitch Generation:** The software can automatically generate natural-sounding vibrato, breathiness, and pitch slides. As seen in the Choir Test you are viewing, it is capable of handling complex harmonies and classical vocal textures. * **Cross-Lingual Synthesis:** Many of its "voicebanks" can sing in English, Japanese, and Chinese, regardless of the singer's native language, while maintaining their unique vocal character. * **Vocal Styles:** Users can adjust "tension," "breathiness," and "gender" parameters to change the emotional tone of the performance from a whisper to a belt. ### **Why Artists Use It** 1. **Drafting Vocals:** Composers use it to hear how a melody sounds with "human" lyrics before hiring a session singer. 2. **Virtual Performance:** Some creators use it as the final lead vocal for electronic or pop music, especially in the "Vocaloid" and virtual idol communities. 3. **Choir Layering:** As demonstrated on the alonetone page, it is excellent for creating realistic choral backing tracks without needing a live ensemble. > **Note:** The "third chord from the end" mentioned in the description is a **stacked major/minor 7th**, which is a sophisticated harmonic choice that tests the software's ability to maintain clarity in dissonant or complex intervals. >
Very nice. I like that tuning and this piece lot. I have used John's Eagle 53 tuning on several pieces. One is called "53 Eagles in Eagle 53." lol.
ZOWIE!!!!!
The question of how microtonality is perceived and why is a hotly debated one. There seems to be, in general, but not in all cases, shared intervals around the world, like the 5th. However non-western cultures use, in general, microtonal tunings. 12 equal notes to an octave is a relatively recent invention in the west. 300 years ago it was common for what would be now called a microtonal tuning to be in common, everyday use. As best as can be determined the push for 12 equal was all about changing keys in a single piece of music. If you take the tuning of the middle ages, Pythagorean, you find you can’t play in any key despite having 12 notes because the intervals between the notes are not equally spaced. As a result when you take a pure chord and move it up or down the octave with the same distance between the notes it could become something hideous. 12 Equal solves that problem at the expense of detuning all notes, some more than others.
