I'd like to hear examples of what other users have accomplished with Synsy. I feel that Peter implemented the feature, at least in part, to give voice to my music. I'd like to show my appreciation by singing a song to/for Peter.

Excellent idea Don, and absolutely very commendable. My results with Synsy have been less than desirable, partly possibly due to the Japanese sounding phonemes that have been used. More information on Synsy is available here Of course, YMMV Fellow forum fember David Cuny has also been developing SynSinger, a similar product and one you might explore also.

Ian, Yes, I've been working with David Cuny. Voice synthesis, especially singing, is in it's infancy. I'm hoping to get David connected to the engineering staff at Dynavox-Tobii who have developed the most realistic-sounding speaking voice that I've ever heard. It seems to me that singing voices would be a logical progression. I don't know if David was successful in contacting their R&D engineers. Dynavox was recently acquired by a Japanese company, Tobii, so I'm anxious to see/hear what they do with the technology. Another interesting technology is a voice bank (I've forgotten the name) where they take snippets of volunteer's speech then concatenate them and process the results through a Melodyn-type processor. That idea shows a great potential. Donny

I've done a couple songs using Sinsy - for example, Words Like Smoke. The early BiaB support for Sinsy had a number of problems which might have turned people off from using it. For example, syllables had short rests between them, so words often were mispronounced. There was a bug which caused some notes to be exported as naturals instead of flats. I think these have both been corrected, although I've never gotten confirmation back from my bug reports. I wish that the people working on Sinsy had used a native English speaker, because the /R/ and /L/ aren't very distinct. But the voices are very natural, and there are a number of YouTube videos showing off what's possible.

It seems to me that singing voices would be a logical progression. I don't know if David was successful in contacting their R&D engineers. Anyone who's familiar with voice synthesis won't have trouble finding out about Sinsy - there's a ton of information on the internet. Basically, it uses HMM (Hidden Markov Model) synthesis and then modifies it from spoken to sung speech. The source for Sinsy has been released on SourceForge. Unfortunately, it's beyond my skill to build it, and they apparently only included a single Japanese voice. Another interesting technology is a voice bank (I've forgotten the name) where they take snippets of volunteer's speech then concatenate them and process the results through a Melodyne-type processor. That idea shows a great potential. I've heard demos that have spliced together segments of actual speech phonemes along with formant synthesized speech. The results take on a strong character of the original speaker. Edit: I see on the Sinsy SourceForge discussion board from a couple weeks ago that they're planning on releasing the English version in the near future. Part of the issue seems to be that the English version was done in an ad-hoc manner. They suggest that if you can't wait that long, you could do it yourself by modifying the source code.

David,
I believe the name of the project is VocalID (qv).
They are still in the process of gathering voice samples.

Don, I believe you maybe thinking of ++ Vocal ID ++. Another possibility is ++ Model Talker ++

I am an honorary member but I've fallen behind in their progress. They have been working primarily on speech and not singing which seems a logical progression. Thanks, Donny

Hi Don, I have been working with Synsy for the last couple of days and my problem is that the entire vocal cuts out except for a faint "tsk" sound after every 5 or 6 bars. The phrases that do sound are quite clear although there is quite an "accent" to the words. I've downloaded a new version several times and it continues to cut out every few bars. I'm beginning to wonder if it is a problem with the track itself. I checked the Audio Edit and there are spaces where it shows almost no activity and then it will pick up again several bars later. Can't imagine what is causing this. Would you or any of your friends on here care to venture a guess of why this is happening or how to fix it?

Wonderful to hear from you, my friend.
Are you losing your beautiful voice so starting reliance on voice synthesis?
Singing voice as opposed to speaking voice is another world entirely. I just received a new Dynavox 15" Speech Synthesis Device that speaks perfectly. The problem is in making it sing.
I would really like to team David Cuny up with the R&D Engineers at Dynavox-Tobii.
I have an older Dynavox VMax (qv) that you are welcome to have for conversation purposes. Just nod your head and I'll ship it out.
You may enjoy learning that Illinois State University's Dr Kim McCord has honored me by establishing The Don Gaynor Special Needs Music Department. I'm thrilled. Unfortunately, Professor McCord is being forced into early retirement due to serious family health issues and the University has no plans to continue her program, the top-rated such program in the nation.
Again, it's awesome hearing from you.
Appropriate affection.
Donny

Yes, Don, I really have no voice quality anymore. I believe it may be a thyroid issue. No trouble speaking just the hoarseness that keeps me from a good vocal quality.
I am finding it more and more difficult to learn to use these new technical advances so though I appreciate your offer of the Dynavox, I fear that it wouldn't be much use to me and perhaps someone else could make better use of it than I. I haven't even mastered all the things available to me in BIAB. There is just so much to learn and absorb so it can be put to use but I'm working on it as time allows.

Would you or any of your friends on here care to venture a guess of why this is happening or how to fix it? I'd be happy to have a look at it. Could you send the Sound.XML file that BiaB generates? If you installed BiaB on your C: drive, You should be able to find the file here: C:\bb\data\SRequest\Sound.XMLIf not, you can find it by going into BIAB, choosing Lyrics from the menu, and selecting Vocal Synth-Manual Mode... from the dropdown. BiaB will display a dialog box with the following message: C:\bb\data\SRequest\Sound.XML is now generated This indicates where the file is located. My own voice synthesis program has a few timing bugs I'm still struggling to track down. The voice quality is OK, but it's hard to understand at fast tempos, and is a lot more synthetic than Sinsy. But if you're interested in trying it out, let me know. The primary voice is male, but I've got the option for a female voice. Here's an example of what it sounds like: synSinger Female Voice Demo. Obviously, the female voice needs more work.

Val, Actually, Dynavox is not very technical - it speaks what you type into it's touch-screen keyboard. Common phrases are pre-programmed and assigned to hot keys. Literally hundreds of common phrases make typing virtually unnecessary. Also, it's not a toy. It's a full blown Windows 7 computer with WIFI and a fairly decent audio amplifier. I would be happy to give it to you. It's just gathering dust because I have three. I will have to locate the charger/adapter though. I'm told that my new 15" cost $15K so the VA is taking excellent care of your old Irish friend. Donny

Thanks for responding to my post and for your offer to take a look at my problem. I have just spent the whole day re-downloading all my BIAB files to the C drive, hoping this may make a difference. I had been using the hard drive version where I first experienced the problem so I dug out my back up copy and tried it on that, thinking perhaps some files had become corrupted on the original hard drive version. But It did the same thing with my back up copy so I have been re-downloading everything and putting it in my C drive and when I get that finished, I'll try Synsy again. If that hasn't solved the problem, I will get back to you and send that file that you needed. Thanks again for offering to help.
I did go and listen to the female voice in your It's not bad but I use a male vocal for a lot of my songs so I would be more interested in hearing the male voice. I'm wondering if maybe some malware got into my computer when last week one of those scams for computer repair came up on my screen and locked my computer and I had to just shut it down from the task manager. It messed with the files in the boot sector and I had to use the restore and repair to get it back up and running.

Don, I want to thank you again for your offer of the Dynavox. I became interested when I learned that it was Windows 7, because that is what I'm familiar with. I tried Windows 10 and did not like it at all. If you can wait for about 3 months before you send it I will then have a place to put it where I could use it. We hope to add another room onto our apartment this spring. Hubby has been drawing up plans because we are just so "stuffed" into our tiny apartment since we converted my (computer room, music room, office) into a room for our little great grand daughter and moved everything into our already overflowing bedroom. One can hardly move around to find everything. That will give you some time to find the adapter/charger too! Thanks again!

____Val Dear Val, My brief description doesn't do the Dynavox V-Max justice. It can be configured for hands-free Eye Tracking (with a separate accessory). It has WIFI for built-in internet access. I will also include a WIFI Range Extender so you can use it outdoors (within line of sight). It has a scratch resistant touch screen and 2 extra USB Ports for other accessories such as a WIFI or Bluetooth wireless keyboard. Here is a picture and complete details. http://www.dynavoxtech.com/products/vmaxplus/specs/There is an 1800 page Owners' Manual pre-loaded on it's hard drive. Don PS: I should mention - It's CPU (Intel Adam) is NOT sufficiently robust to run BIAB.

Thanks Don for sending that link! I've been checking it out and I see that there are two ways to order it so that you can do more than just the "speech" on it. So is this one standard or dedicated? I'm thinking that the standard would allow for a game of Solitaire now and then, Am I correct? I think I should send you a request on Facebook to continue our conversations. OK? Been working on downloading BIAB files to my C: drive so then I can try the Sensy again. I discovered today that my computer had been invaded by malicious code that was not caught by my Anti-virus so I changed my antivirus to Kaspersky today and it immediately caught it in the first 5 minutes of the scan! Now I can go back to work.

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound!
