Hahaha :)
And here's something I made with eSpeak.
#82 hozosch
Oh, how did you make it do that?
#83 Enes
Just by adjusting the pitch and inflection (setting it to 0). Did not use any auto-tune software or anything like that.
#84 hozosch
Ah right. So you just made them harmonize like that. There was one guy on YouTube who could make ESpeak sing and pitch it exactly to a midi song, but also just with ESpeaks pitch.
#85 Enes
Wow, do you have the URL?
#86 SeedyTV
Are you sure it was just a case of setting the pitch and inflection to 0? It sounds vocoded.
#87 Enes
Man, what's wrong with y'all? Yes, I am sure. Why would I lie? And what else can I do if you don't believe what I say?
#88 ArcticMoon
It seriously sounds like as it was vocoded, so Seedy has a valid point there. If you say it wasn't though, I believe you and accept your statement. On the other hand, please, please keep your tone calm. Once this goes into personal attacking territory, we will have to deal with the situation. This is neither your blog, nor a playground. Thanks for understanding. :)

Didn't use any vocoders. Yes, I am sure I didn't use any. I swear I didn't use any vocoders! This was the best I could do with GoldWave's doppler effect.

It was simply a question of confirmation, since it did have that nice vocodey type effect to it. I actually like vocoding. I have eSpeak set as my NVDA synth, with inflection set to 0, with the pitch set to 20 for the C2 key, but I can't seem to produce the same effect. What varient did you use? I'm using Max.
#91 Enes
I didn't use a single variant and don't unfortunately remember what they were. Since the voices have their own pitch specified among their parameters, not all voices actually produce the same pitch if you set the pitch to the same value in the NVDA voice settings. Some voices have a higher pitch and I use them to get higher notes. Some I use for lower ones. And then I panned the different recordings to get something like a choir. I also like vocoders and know what they do but don't know how to use them and don't have a midi keyboard.
#92 hozosch
Ok, I think it's also part of ESpeaks sound, especially when you do harmonizing, that it sounds vocoded.
#93 Enes
It does but I had already said I hadn't used any vocoders. I guess my previous posts have been explanatory enough so I don't want to continue arguing on the matter or explaining my points over and over.
#94 hozosch
Of course, I believe you. I just wanted to clarify where this perception most likely comes from.
#95 Enes
Got it.

Agree :)
How did you make that, if you made it?
