focus on the german language, but there
are many other features for all of you:
German language
- german phoneme dictionary with
100000+ words

Choir rendering function
This 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 compley mixed
choirs without any effort on your side !

With Version 1.6 VirSyn presents a
completely revised version of CANTOR
CANTOR 1.6 is a major upgrade
incorporating a completely revised vocal
synthesis engine. The new engine makes
it now much easier to produce
intelligible vocal lines. This was
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. |

Description of CANTOR
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 !
