Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Wow - this is incredibly unique! It isn't too often you hear something like this on the showcase. I'm trying to think of what this reminds me of, but nothing comes to mind. I really liked the upbeat nature of the tune, and the combination of both the regular singing voice and the synthetic one. It gives a very interesting dynamic.

Really well done - thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,

This was so refreshing, and definitely not what I expected from a song called "Remember to Call Me". This is definitely a very unique sound we do not get to see often in the showcase, so thank you for sharing an under represented genre. smile


Cheers,

Well done!! Definitely has elements of the 80's dance music. I would use a different midi piano sound for the solo melody. Nicely done!! Take care. Greg

Especially liked how you quieted most of the tracks when the female voice sang in certain key places..this got me thinking about new directions, and I'd like to know what SW you used for the female voice.

Thank you everyone for the compliments. I forgot to add in original post that I also used BiaB 1530 Guitar with Soloist to generate guitar in the last section of the song.

Greg, would you suggest something different than a piano for solo melody or just a different piano sound? I really appreciate the constructive criticism.

Tano Music, the female voice is Vocaloid Cyber Diva. I just got the software before doing this song. I've learned much more reading documentation and watching tutorials since then, so I think the next will be even better. I'm still really new at using all of the software involved (BiaB, Reaper, and Vocaloid) - I hope to get faster and more proficient as I have many ideas for songs to complete.
