This is an example of BiaB with the Symphonic Choir from http://www.soundsonline.com/Symphonic-Choirs
I have not yet bought this software, but consider it. I just downloaded some of the examples from the web site. I mixed in some real instrument, and in my ears, the result was good... What u think guys?

Another fine example of what's possible with the addition of "Creativity"
This is really well done, very interesting indeed!

Hello, Trygve

This is a very ambitious work.
Very interesting and very creative.
I own EastWest Symphonic Choir, which sounds are very beautiful, but it is a little bit difficult to give words to voices.
I think it is much easier to let vocaloid sing with words.
I also like classical music and some day I would like to use Symphonic Choir effectively.
Take care.

Best Regards.

Thank's a lot animarorecords.. Yes I can agree on that.. I just today tried to work out the best way to do it, but it is certainly not easy... It should be, because in Biab, we have great sounding background music, with midi charts, which could be easily taken into Vocaloid and given lyrics, and in a variety of voices, (if we have) to build up a great sounding choir. If u have lots or a little experience to share, please do so in a tread I want to start in the of topic forum about how to utilize Vocaloid for BiaB productions that I want to start...

Cheers for the enriched future of song creation in BiaB!
