Same! I actually love most of my songs and I listen to them more than I listen to other music these days! I am def my biggest fan!

Agreed! I enjoy hearing covers of my songs and since I can't convince other singers to do it I use Synth V to do it sometimes.

Same! Without BIAB I would have never finished so many songs up to an acceptable level of production. Also, tools from izotope have been huge for me. As a side note, anyone who uses BIAB and then complains about others using AI is kinda tone deaf! Pun intended!

Yep! I LOVE Synth V and I have purchased the upgrade and own about 8 voices. BUT, I mainly use it for proof of concept, occasionally using it for a lead or harmony vocal but it usually requires significantly more work than just singing the part! I find their detection to be very spotty but sometimes I can record a vocal part and then use it to convert to a Synth V track and spend a few hours cleaning it up.
