    OK, so let's talk about DAWs...

    You might reach out to MOTU directly on this.

    I love DP. Exactly my experience... with Logic! Were I just getting started, Logic would pretty much be a no-brainer, what with the depth of VIs and plugins it offers. I use MainStage live, and find the Vintage Keys very useful. As you are probably aware, MOTU offers a crossgrade discount...

    Sonarworks SoundID VoiceAI - First attempt!

    Those singers are pros, for sure, but if you've got a good ear, decent tone, and some tuning software, you can do great BVs in the studio, too! I often find myself filling in BVs for artists with whom I work... it is fun finding parts and crafting a sweet BV blend with one's voice. And let me...

    Singing a lead vocal may be the ultimate form of musical expression but one's soul risks torture. Background vocals are safer. :oops:

    Thanks for that... it lead to this: Nice!

    Definitely interesting. The fact that VoiceAI models the voice that it is processing keeps it closer to "we are actually creating something" vs writing AI prompts.

    Sonarworks SoundID VoiceAI - First attempt!

    I just can't see releasing a track using it as the featured vocalist... regardless of how good it may sound. Feels like walking too close to the edge, at least in this point in my experience and personal moral code. Not to mention the excellent singers I regularly work with wanting to crush my...

    I bought it (paid $99; should have waited a couple of days - duh) and played with it just a bit yesterday. Definitely not lead vocal material IMO, but the aforementioned use in choir creation sill seems valid.

    I see it as a good way to get background vocals to sound bigger. I don't think. I'll be using it for leads, unless that's what a client demands over my discouragement.

    Growing older... it happens to the best of us

    I've written a lot of poetry over the years; like most here, I'm sure, I love writing both music and words. Following a trip to the Sierras with my (then) young family and my parents, I was inspired to pen a story/poem about a hike we took up the McGee Creek Trail. I'm happy I was able to share...

    Growing older... it happens to the best of us

    Very cool tune, nicely done @Nekujak ! Those of us who are getting further along the path of life's journey and are looking at AI and where it is taking the creative arts might feel, as I do, that we've dodged the AI bullet. My clients still want to work with me, a living person, and will...

    This is much more interesting to me than the "prompt" approach to AI music creation... definite uses within a human-created production. Gonna' nave to try it!

    How much raw humanity does your music need?

    Of course. My impression was we were focusing more on recording tech (as opposed to the instruments we use to make noise) in this thread. The invention of the 12-tone chromatic scale had a pretty big impact on western music, too. ;) Replace the word "process" (which can be interrupted in a...
