CANTOR 1.6 also sings German now!

Version 1.6 of CANTOR has itīs main focus on the german language, but there are many other features for all of you. The function Choir rendering function makes the generation of choirs even with hundreds of voices a snap. Every choir voice is generated separately with adjustable random variations in pitch, start time and sound characteristic. Using different base voices result in completely mixed choirs without any effort on your side! You can import now MIDI files into the score editor. With MIDI files containing the lyrics the song text is also imported !

It is now much easier to produce intelligible vocal lines. This is achieved with an improved filter model and a new kind of rule based phoneme sequencer which adapts the phoneme transitions according to the context inside a word. CANTOR's main purpose is to provide you with creative vocal parts for live and studio usage. All is possible - lively leadsounds, background choirs, vocoder like effects, ... Due to the consequent design as a real synthesizer without using samples the main usage of CANTOR is not primarily the replacement of "human" singers but more the creation of new virtual character voices whose base sound can be influenced by the user in an extremely flexible manner. And all this is possible in realtime ! This opens up exciting possibilites for live sessions too.

The human voice is the most sophisticated and versatile instrument used in musical expression. With CANTOR an exciting new era of realtime vocal synthesis begins right now! Imaging entering your lyrics in plain english and then sing your lyrics instantly just by playing the melody on your MIDI Keyboard. Add realistic expression with realtime parameters controlling vibrato rate and depth or changing the character of the singing voice from female to male! But CANTOR even goes beyond creating realistic human singers. Many parameters have no relation to human vocals like Metallize which turns your virtual singer more into a singing Gong... The voice editor allows you to edit the character of your virtual singer by defining the base spectrum for vowels and consonants. For those of you ever wanting to create your own alien language the Phoneme editor gives you full access to the atoms of the vocal synthesis engine. With this editor you can define the formant structure and the noise characteristic of each phoneme used by the vocal engine, and remember that for any edits your are going to do the changes are immediately audible in realtime!
