That's only $528 if you do the Annual subscription, assuming prices don't change.

But I agree - at this point, ACE Studio seems to be a couple of generations behind SynthesizerV, as the "tuning" of vocals has to me manual.

And as you say, SUNU is a whole 'nother animal. It's learned not only the voice of singers, but expressive mannerisms as well. Unfortunately, these seem to be baked into the voice, so with SUNO, what you get is what you get.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
