CeVIO Updated IA/IA English/ONE banks coming to Cevio AI

[lIlI]

If anyone wants to get a refresher on what AI IA could sound like, CeVIO released English demos of her on their private 2018 build of the software:

AI技術により超高精度な歌声合成を実現

Pink: AI with backing track | Blue: AI acapella | Grey: Sample based acapella

Youtube version:

We can hear from the comparison between the 2018 Japanese demo and current CeVIO AI that they had to scale back quality somewhat for a commercial release, so I am expecting more engine noise in the final product. (They mentioned in 2018 that this version took many, many hours to render.)

One thing I note is that the timing and emphasis of her words sounds a bit stilted at points. Prosody is a very subtle aspect of singing that I wouldn't be surprised if it's just something that's necessary to tune manually.

You can get a sense of how IA English AI will sound by judging the difference between Sasara AI here and in recent demonstrations. Basically won't be as crisp as this (which can be a good thing in some cases) but should be pretty smooth and expressive. They might have also improved her a bit since this demo!

I was going through the IA&ONE official Twitter and saw they retweeted this, so isn't that basically confirmation it really is H?

 

[lIlI]

I think they were retweeting everything in the tag, so I wouldn't call it 100% confirmed yet.

Maybe, but they actually were leaving comments on some of the things like fan art, so I would like to think they put a little thought into what they retweeted.

Here 1st Place refers to the third character as 'H', and we move one step closer to having our first single-letter SEO-killer vocal synth. Was she the same character that was planned to release back in Vocaloid4? How much has her concept changed? Is her name literally 'H'??! Only time will tell.

 

[YOYo_MAMA]

Will this start a trend on Vocal synth names being just one or more letters? Like the possible Lion guy be just "L", or combo fushion like "Æ"?

 

[BiscuitsandTriscuits]

I like the fact that all of the 1st place synths have a different number of letters in their name but none of them pass 3 I have to think that was intentional

Who are those furry-looking dudes in the back tho

H's deviantart adoptables, you too can get one for 50 DA points.

The 4th synth character they make will just be named " ", no letters, just white space and they won't even tell us how to pronounce the name

Trying to search for her on google sets your intestines on fire.
Viewing her official website is like staring into the face of god.
Adding her to your shopping cart deletes you from the timeline.

Great, where can I buy her

Anyway! Neat to have confirmation. Can't wait to see what becomes of her after her wild but interesting V4 teasers!

I wonder what voice type H (however you pronounce her name) will be
My guess would be a power vocal. For me, the mask and outfit make her look that way

It's Shiro and Sora from No Game No Life who won a contest from 1st place and wanted a name similar to their like game account name of 『　』.

 

[YOYo_MAMA]

The 4th synth character they make will just be named " "

Imagine the confusion and bickering if it's real!

Person 1: Have you heard of the 4th Aria sibling?
Person 2: Yeah, she's called "..".
Person 1: What?
Person 2: I said ".."
Person 1: Just say it.
Person 2: I am saying it! It's "..."
Person 1: Your not saying anything!!
Person 2: I just did you. It's "..."!!
Person 1: What?
Person 2: "..."!!!!
Person 1: What!!??
Person 2: "........"!!!!
Person 1: Well F*ck you too if you won't tell me!!

 

[CdrSonan]

I wanted to say ... would kill the tradition of choosing names that confuse English speakers, but you're right, it'd confusing as heck!

 

[uncreepy]

Okay, so this tweet is calling her "Code name H" now and we will apparently be getting info gradually about her. (Will we ever learn the names of the furry dudes?)

 

[YOYo_MAMA]

Code name H sounds pretty cool actually. It's like in those spy films or in Men in Black where secret agents just calls themselves letters like J or K.
