MELODYNE, but maybe not available in realtime, dunno.
That free software beta for MIDI guitar may be able to take a Mic input...
A lot of people use the VoiceLive and VoiceLive2 hardware technology, that little box is rather amazing for background vox. You can check out demos on Youtube.

Buy a vocoder. It will sing what you play into it.

didn't you say in a different thread that you just bought a TC Helicon Voiceworks? That should come pretty close to doing what you want. You can get 5 unique parts from your one vocal part

Yes - I do have the voiceworks, and I haven't explored it yet - but I'm talking about singing into a mic and having my pitch converted to MIDI and applied to ANY VST sound, for example, a Keith Emerson keyboard sound, or a Bass sound.

Try out the MIDI guitar software emulator mentioned in another thread here, but see how it works with the Mic as input rather than guitar.

when you said CHOIR, I assumed you meant a choir of human voices
The MIDI guitar plugin that MAC mention, and which has shown up in several threads recently, may be the closest thing to what you want. I haven't tried it yet, but it supposedly does a good job of taking an analog input (I don't know why a mic wouldn't work as input) and redirecting it to a synth

From here it looks like a few more than "a couple"...

Roland briefly manufactured a keyboard that was expressly intended for what you are asking. Sing into its built-in mic, play a chord and have a choir to your spec: male, female, mixed, gospel, etc. It sold for about $1100.

Isn't that something that BIAB/RB excels at?
I would start on the Chord Sheet View Window and enter your chord progression, then adjust the Key, Tempo, and Style until you have something relatively close. Look for something with a choir in the style. Perhaps the easiest, regardless of your final instrument choice, would be piano. Then look at your progress in Editable Notation View or Piano Roll View (which allows dragging notes and durations around to suit). Adjust all parameters until you have a backing choir then hit RECORD to add your vocal track. Its really much easier than my explanation makes it out to be.

If you want an actual real-time piece of hardware, you might look at the Sonuus products -- http://www.sonuus.com .

I thought this was built-in to RB or PowerTracks Pro Audio. Where's rharv when you need him? I swear there's an melody line audio to midi conversion inside one PG product as part of the feature set.
C'mon you PG'ers, isn't this the case?
