For us her voice in the higher register sounds more unnatural.

The band on all sounds great.

Uplifting message too.

Well done! And no doubt a helluva lot of thought and effort.

thanks.... it is and has been a learning curve. Trying to figure out the various parameters and getting them right, because, there's currently not a lot of info in the manual on the details in English. A fair bit of lets punch this button and see what it does, going on. Part of what I'm learning is the vocal range that sounds the best, and what doesn't because it's either too low or too high. I actually transposed and reworked the melody lower in a few places. Just like us, she strains to hit those higher notes and while she will hit the pitch, the formants are not sufficient to make it sound good.

Considering that there were several versions created and deleted previous to any of these.... yeah, there was a lot of work involved and thinking as well as a lot of second guessing.....


I had the opportunity to see and meet the Isaacs a number of years ago when they played a concert at our church. Amazing vocalists, all.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
