It's publicly available on the interwebz. I just thought it was cool in an odd sort of way.....

I googled Steve to see if I could find out what area he lives in to see if I could help him find a singer that would collaborate.

Good Lord the crap that popped up is stunning......... :o

Oh well, he's already said that he can't find a singer and this plugin he'd pay $1000 for will never happen "in his lifetime" so no point in keeping this thread open any longer....... :wink:

Here's the Craigslist results for Musicians here in Las Vegas. I assume there are similar Craigslist pages somewhere near Steve.

https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/d/musicians/search/muc

I'd look there for a singer or post an ad (it's free) "Looking for Singer to Collaborate". Then make it clear there is no pay involved but the opportunity to get 250 songs released is possible. Can't hurt to try. :wink:

Bingo.....just who you're looking for. Gotta be someone similar close to you......

I don't care. Let him act like a 5 year old. Doesn't register with my anymore. Another reason that I do music myself. People are assholes.

Well, I would not be mad if they used my face, but I'm not trying to sell anything or keep my rep. intact. I'm just hanging out. Like they said. It's internet publicity. There is no bad publicity. I was told that in the 90's.

I wouldn't be interested myself. Seems like it would further depersonalize music. A lot of other people would be interested and i'm sure gladly pay the 1k.
Sadly, I know it's not happening in my lifetime.
Hmm, i wouldn't be so sure of that.

The new Ik media DAW is a grand. Just saying.

Well... the good news is that we DO have the technology to do what Wags suggested in the original post right now !

The bad news is... in it's current state, we have only successfully modeled one celebrity voice so far. :D :dog:

So we can put an end to the whole "Get a singer" talk, I'm just going to come out and say it.

I hate working with musicians. I've yet to have a good experience with one of them. Want to blame me? No problem. Blame me. I'm a miserable Scrooge, I hate people and people hate me and I couldn't care less. And no, my life isn't lonely and pitiful. I have my wife, my daughter, my future son in law and my church and that's all I need. I'm perfectly content doing music myself and have absolutely NO desire to work with others, EVER.

The other day, somebody actually PM'd me here asking to collaborate. And I was very honest with this person. I told him that I didn't collaborate and I explained why. The only reason I reconsidered (yes, I did) was because of his response. He actually understood how I felt. And his whole response actually made me think "What the heck, this might actually work out." But I only made that decision because of the amazing response I got. It floored me.

But I'll be damned if I'm going out into the real world and start looking for singers. That is NOT going to happen. Oh, and by the way, this person has NO problem with Vocaloid. In fact, he's impressed what I'm able to do with it.

Okay, so that's it. No more talk about working with singers. I have no desire to and never will.

Ever.

And that's why I prefer technology. It does what I want and doesn't talk back to me. I end up with songs that have a drummer, bass player, guitar player, keyboard player, singer and even a string section, just like this. And I don't have to pay them or deal with their personalities.

You would make a fine dictator imho. 'They do what I want and don't talk back to me.'

Some people like writing poems on grains of rice, so what if wagtunes wants to requence his singers? I don't get the animosity towards the idea nor towards Wagtunes himself. We all like to create, someone wants to make a string section on their computer, they could hire real musicians, but they don't. So Wags wants to do the same with a vocalist, I do too, I used AlterEgo to do it right now. I certainly would like a more sophisticated plugin at some point. $1000 is what I balk at. I say $99.

First of all man, you gotta stop defending my position. It's not going o win you any friends around here.

Secondly, I don't think you're getting that kind of technology for $99. I mean I'm talking about a vocal performance that is indistinguishable from a real live person. That's going to come with a real hefty price tag, at least at the start.

So what you really meant to say was "thanks Tek for doing the research and trying to help me solve my problem since the plugin I suggested isn't likely to ever exist".

I'm sure that's what you meant to type right ? :wink:

Your dream plugin won't ever exist and you're closed minded to any other possible solution so take your 250 songs with the Vocaloid vocals and learn to live with it....you've left yourself no other solution.

Do us all a favor and lock this thread since it's at a dead end. :tu:

Well, I'm not here to become popular, dude. Regarding the tech, just wait, when that Adobe thing matures a little, or others like it emerge, and makes its way into the entertainment industry, real singers will be feeling like drummers after drum machines came out. Not outright replaced, but they will get some hefty competition. There will probably be free phone apps doing it, make you sing like Beyonce. $99 sounds like the right price for my budget, or maybe it will be free with my next DAW.
