That is an amazing system.
The conversion is really nice.
But, methinks the singer must have a very good voice.
After reading the B.S. stuff, apparently this is/can be corrected.
Just read thru the information.....
I've been wanting a good singer for choir voices.
Hope they are legit folks, just put $25 towards their efforts.
Probably better chances than winning the lotto..

Has a lot of potential.
I like the way the midi keyboard plays as he speaks after the end of his 'performance'. Shows you exactly where the human voice range is.

I don't know if the voice needs to be great, thhough being in tune would be helpful -- for live use anyway, though there are fixes for that too, such as this free plugin http://www.meldaproduction.com/plugins/product.php?id=MAutoPitchI use it as a safety net sometimes

My ears say otherwise. It appears that the algo is triggering on a few other thing besides the fundamental when he talks, likely sibilants, cavity resonances and stuff like that. --Mac

A certain WOW factor I agree, but is it just nothing more than a nice gimmick? I do wonder though that providing I, or someone else, created a decent sound font of a brass band cornet that actually sounds like a cornet, couple that to this imitone stuff, then all I need do is whistle or hum into the microphone at the next band rehearsal and leave the cornet at home, just need to learn how to whistle, or hum in tune.

Thru talking with another friend about this product this came up.
The Yamaha PSR/TYROS keyboard arrangers have a similar thing in
the vocal harmony setup's. You can select voices, sing, grunt, snarl
into the mic and one of the Yamaha keyboard voices will play.
He did comment after viewing the video that the imitone had far great
abilitie in the parameters setup.

This old trumpet player immediatesly thought about what the program might be able to accomplish by playing the horn at the mic instead of singing. And then you could bring up a Strings patch, or Piano, or whatever BESIDES the horn, which you already have. How about in Live use - put a Mic on the bell of the horn, mix it to both the PA and to the puter input, mix the computer MIDI output thru the PA as well, have a different sound playing identically with your solo... --Mac

Yeah, my mind is racing too...
Yesterday he raised about $2,500, and is now $1,250 from the VST stretch goal.
