My genuine thoughts? wink

Musically, the song is pretty good. There are some notes that much too short. Robots can sing the notes, but they don't sound like what a human sound sing.

The vocals? When the voices sing together, it's bad.

The synthesis sounds like 1990s formant synthesis. Jay, the male voice, isn't "real", but it's pleasant to listen to. Not at all convincing, but it gets the idea of the song across without drawing too much attention to itself.

On the other hand, Lucy, the female voice, sounds like Jay pitched up an octave with some formants shifted. It's doesn't sound even remotely human, it's distracting to listen to, and worse, it's hard to make out what's being said.

It's not any fault on your part. I just listened to demos that Emvoice posted of their singers, and although you can hear the character of the person behind them, the vocoder that Emvoice is using simply isn't capable of rendering the female voice realistically.

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