when it comes to deep learning style vocal synths vs concatenative synthesis style vocal synths i like and use both, theres pros and cons for each, i adore deep learning synths for their versatility in vocal modes/expressions/appends/whatever and their breaths and of course im a fan of how many have multi-lingual functionality, but one thing they just cant beat concatenative on is the late 2000s-ass NND-ass doujin-ass impossibly fast rapid fire syllable'd japanese pop singing a la disappearance of hatsune miku. to be honest miku barely handles it. thats what the song is about. to me no one does it better than a basic but well oto'd CV utau LOL

#people are too mean about cv. i love cv. its fantastic for fast singing like that. and i like it for character-y voices #its choppy yeah but thats to its benefit for speed. dl and even some sample based synths sound too smooth for their own good for that #synthv's ai banks are especially tough to sing fast short words with. you gotta mess a lot not just with the pitch transitions #but u gotta get into those phonemes too. you gotta get in there #openutau with diffsinger or enunu or something ive found handles it a bit better tho. and voisonas built in staccato feature also is useful #interesting cevio ai also struggles a bit like SV LOL despite being a sister to voisona....#and SV's standard banks like my beloved benbu do pretty well. maybe because SV was born from moresampler #but also dont get me wrong. i do love my deep learning banks. smooth and clear. they often lose some power but they make up for it in #with their versality like i said. plus theres the file size benefit - usually under a gb for what would need like multiple in samples.#tho theres also the other side of that where most sample based synths dont need as powerful hardware. pros and cons #but also dont get me wrong the other way. i love a good stretched and looped sample too JKFDKfsd rn we're getting a LOT of #commercial AI banks because the tech is new and newly affordable and i assume it must be easier on the vocal provider #still a lot of work but maybe providing some hours of data is easier than carefully recording specific syllables for hours? i dunno #BUT the humble CV japanese utau bank will never die. worry not. more will come out every second. hell u can make one too #i should make one....... someday....................
