One Light (Cover)

This is a brief cover song of the Linkin Park ballad-- One More Light.

I produced the music and then had the new SynthesizerV male voice create the vocals. This vocal tool is very helpful in demoing vocal melody to my clients or vocalists as a reference track and much better than my out of tune, cant carry a note voice....

Like any new instrument it takes time to master the tool and i am a long way away from that but with some effort I am starting to see the potential and wanted to would share this song with you. I could have spent more time tuning to improve some pitch and timing and to process the vocals to get this even better

Maybe some of you have heard the original and can appreciate the cover.

I am interested in your feedback on the voice tool.... do you see the value in your workflow or use?

Thanks,
Bob

P.S.
This is the same tool that David Cuny is using

Who knew that a synth voice could be so realistic? It's certainly something I would investigate when I'm earning a regular income.


My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile smile

Hi Bob
Wow
Sounds so real
Incredible
I don't know the original but it sounds fantastic anyway
But Bob, please explain :
How can you "tell" the artificial voice how to sing the song ???
which melody to sing ???
where to emphasize something ????
is really extremely impressive
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Very cool track... I'm not familiar with the original, but this sounds very good, and the vocal sample is lifelike, I like the guitar sound.

I love the sound and I think everyone should explore new technology. It's truly amazing what can be accomplished, and you showed us the unlimited potential of this product. I think anything that helps us get what we hear down on the "tape" is a value. Nice sound and good song.

Here is a link to the original song One More Light by Linkin Park which will be a reference for you to the computer generated song.

This is a sad song considering the lead from the song, Chester Bennington, committed suicide -- I believe he wrote this for Cris Cornell who also committed suicide

The programing starts with a piano roll look and feel like any DAW where you would enter the notes to the lyric melody

where to emphasize something ????
you have control of many different voice characteristic include pitch, tension, vibrato, gender, volume -- all of which can be tweaked to get it perfect.

is really extremely impressive???
Some people have made amazing songs where they have really taken the time to tweak/tune each voice note. some are even releasing songs with these vocalists

i expect the combination of BIAB and Voice synth will help make me much more productive and successful-

Bob,

Wow. THAT sounded "real". First time I've heard a synth voice that would have fooled me - could NOT tell that was a generated vocal. Impressive.

Nice guitar track, too. Is that a VST?

Looking forward to hearing what you do next with this...

I agree with Floyd in that this is the first artificial vocal that sounds organic. Excellent job on that.

A fantastic however a bit short song.

That was really good!

Very nice. Well.... I listened to the original first thinking that was the synth voice.... Thinking the entire time... Damn! .... Then I realized I was not listening to your cover with the AI vox.

I finally listened to the correct one..... Still pretty impressive.

Technology is amazing.

Sounds like you have taken it up a notch. This demo has a distinct auto tune artifact that I don't hear on your short demo ...

How did you avoid the AT?

No the guitar was real the others VST with some help from BIAB

I did a little tweaking on the pitch and vibrato -- This is a little confusing at first but playing with it and trying to create a cover helped me first with the timing and length of a word and then little by little saying that word didnt sound right what could i do. Some works/phrases were just perfect.

This is another really well done version - (not by me) -- of one of the voices

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIPCMXSfN6s

Stay with it or advance to around the 3:00 minutes -- I think is really amazing

Bob,
Thanks for sharing. I would have thought this technology to be years away . . . stunningly realistic.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

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

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
