I've been very busy at work for the last year, and it is absolute priority - after all it is ultimately making this part of my life possible. And with the rest of life happening, it is difficult getting to this passionate part of me. There are days when the systems in the control room becomes just an after thought in my mind. The guitars and saxes in the recording room collects a very fine layer of dust, and makes me pause for a while when I need to switch on the ceiling spots to fetch an item I needed for some task, irrelevant to music.
So, I've been looking for alternatives to prevent the pain of this regular disappointment, and have been for a while now, following the progress of AI vocals. In fact, it's nothing new to me as you'll see I've done some work already, using Emvoice One (and I won a reward). I don't really consider Emvoice exactly as AI, though.
In the last few months when I could find some time, I've been messing with Kits AI, and let me tell you I've been blown away! There are quite a few options of some pretty good voices, and you can even ad your own character to it. I'm still thinking of committing with subscribing to one of their packages to test out the extra options, but at this point I feel it reliefs me from some of the challenges I've experienced in the last few months.
AI will not replace the warm blooded experience of working with a real artist which is what I really enjoy, but at this point it will bridge that gap for me. It's far from everything, but it helps.
