I'd be happy to have a look at it. Could you send the Sound.XML file that BiaB generates? If you installed BiaB on your C: drive, You should be able to find the file here:

C:\bb\data\SRequest\Sound.XML

If not, you can find it by going into BIAB, choosing Lyrics from the menu, and selecting Vocal Synth-Manual Mode... from the dropdown.

BiaB will display a dialog box with the following message:

C:\bb\data\SRequest\Sound.XML is now generated

This indicates where the file is located.

My own voice synthesis program has a few timing bugs I'm still struggling to track down. The voice quality is OK, but it's hard to understand at fast tempos, and is a lot more synthetic than Sinsy.

But if you're interested in trying it out, let me know. The primary voice is male, but I've got the option for a female voice. Here's an example of what it sounds like: synSinger Female Voice Demo. Obviously, the female voice needs more work.

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