but i would guess that someone with a beard like that ... It's ALL in the beard. The software is just a trompe l'oeil. I can simulate bird calls and produce uncomplicated melodies on household appliances with mine, but it's just a shade beyond scruff. the best part is that i find this stuff technically fascinating, but artistically bankrupt. The hands of the artist will determine the value of the tool. And the beard. jeff

Re: (313) This appears to be completely revolutionary unless I'm missing
Like simple pitch correction, it's just a crutch for the talentless until someone starts misusing it. Which is where techno comes in. The rhetoric may be futuristic, but when it comes down to it, techno was constructed with technology left around after it went out of fashion in the mainstream. As for Celemony Melodyne -- so far all the software they've done has been very well done. Antares Autotune was the pioneer, Melodyne finally got it right. It's a blast to play around with. The company has a reputation for delivering what they promise. I'm a little skeptical about the claims for sound quality. It might pass muster in a full mix, but any time you muck around with recorded audio, especially something that listeners are highly familiar with, like the human voice, piano, etc, even minute changes in timbre are noticed. And then there's the 'uncanny valley' from animation. If you change a vocal part to something too far from what is naturally singable, or give a guitarist the ability to play 10-note chords, it's going to sound weird, even if there are no audible artifacts in the processing. And by and large, it has f*ck all to do with Detroit Techno.

Also, again unless I am totally missing something, or this is a fake or a gimmick, this means we're officially on a countdown to the time when you can simply unbounce a rendered track woah!
