Bob Doyle Media has a great YouTube video showing making a song using AI, …. Ethical Al Cover Songs with Band in a Box, Kits.ai, and Ace Studio
He makes a song in BiaB, then sings it himself, then transforms his voice into female voice singers using AI (kits.ai and Ace Studio).
Amazing results and a great video!
There are many legal questions being thrown around about the source of the training of some of these models, including voices and recordings of real music artists.
But at the end of the day, AI is a tool that can easily be used in ethical ways to create music - in this case, a cover song.
In this video, we’re going to create the beginning of a cover of “Fly Me To the Moon.”
However, we are not using existing recordings, and we are not using a cloned voice without permission.
Instead, we will use Band-In-A-Box to generate a backing track based on chords it pulls from a MIDI file.
Then I’ll record my voice singing along with that track.
Then, we’ll use Kits.ai to convert my voice into an appropriate female voice, add backing vocals, a bit of harmony, and then put it all together in our multitrack audio editor.
Hopefully you’ll pick up some bits and pieces that will assist you in your music creation endeavors, utilizing AI to help bring your vision to life in an ethical way!

In the video comments Bob Doyle states he has been a Band-in-a-Box user for a couple of years. That's great!
He also said one of the reasons he purchased the Band-in-a-Box 2024 Ultra+ upgrade was to use the harmonizer feature. Unfortunately he is not pleased with the results of the 2024 harmonizer like he was able to obtain using the harmonizer with previous versions of Band-in-a-Box. That's bad.
Quote
I haven’t been happy with the harmonies it’s been creating in version 2024 compared to older versions so until I get that sorted out I’m not featuring that (Record Audio) yet, since that’s really the only way I’ve used the audio recording feature.
Perhaps Bob's comment should be taken as a hint that a PG Music tutorial just about using the 2024 harmonizer would be helpful.
Thanks for the link Noel. I overlooked the video because Bob's quote insinuates there is something different in the 2024 harmonizer than what he used in the past.
I posted a link to the PG Music video in the Bob Doyle video description. Perhaps he will state what is different than what he has used in the past.
According to the table of contents, there is no mention that the harmonizer underwent significant changes in the 2024 Bootcamp video. I'm guessing that Bob is referring to the change from TC Helicon to the present Harmoniser (in 2018). That was a major change. Other than that, the only change I can recall is when the present Harmonizer gained the ability to be applied to all tracks in 2020/2021. As you say, though, Bob might provide some more information to help isolate the issue(s) he's experiencing.
