Have you ever dreamed of having your own Vocal Avatar who will sing back the words you type in to your PC?
No? Anyway, it’s here and now with the latest release from PowerFX, Big Al.
Big Al was developed using the Vocaloid 2 software from Yamaha. Type in words or lyrics, select a melody and hear the results “sung” back. You can use the included tools and effects to improve or manipulate your results. Big Al can sing up to 16 times simultaneously, so you can create backing vocals or choirs.
Big Al’s vocals come from a real singer who was recorded extensively, enabling PowerFX to create a library of his vocal sounds. Vocaloid software users type in words and assign melodies or import midi files to Big Al. He then emulates the words and notes given to him. Expressive effects, vibrato and dynamics can also be added to his singing from the Vocaloid editor, the company says.
Pricing & Availability
The Big Al/Vocaloid package includes a standalone version with export to wav functionality, Real-time VSTi performance and ReWire connectivity.
It is available as a download for $149 or $179 for the DVD.
