WOW this is amazing! Singers for free... well almost ;-)

Also, I typically keep the backup files, project files, and Kontakt files on a regular HDD,
because I do not need the speed and you can get a massive amount of storage.
You can get a 5tb external drive for about $100.

yes, I see, but I prefer they have their own power unit, so I’ll keep the brand

about a regular HDD, I abandoned them since years with no regrets
but my needs in space are way smaller than yours, clearly, and 2 big SSDs + the internal one are all I need

thanks for your tips anyway

then this one might work for you.

I got a lower price than $119 for Hollywood Singers at jrrshop.com when it was on sale. I didn’t buy it.
You need to use a coupon code. Perpetual ones are FORUM and GROUP.
Try both. They can be applied to various products. Also, log in to their Blowouts site for sometimes lower prices.

yes I see, but be careful and compare websites, because today they are selling e.g. Air Music Tech Xpand!2 at 99 USD, while on Plugin Boutique it’s was way lower a few days/weeks ago: discounts vary a lot any day now, regardless of the website :wink:

BTW, buying certain hardwares, you can have Air Music Tech Xpand!2 for free, as in my case :grin:

OK, I tried Symphonic Choir WordBuilder a bit more. Not easy, but the result is quite fine. I had to improvise because some phonemes are not pronounced as I expected, so with fine tuning, it is better.
The result is this song, in three languages (if someone succeeds to recognize what was sung :grin:)

Should I mention, all chords and melodies (except piano) are done with Scaler 2.6. :slight_smile:

it seems a Carmina Burana electronic version :grin:

but it’s just vocals; I suspect complex sentences could be a nightmare

One Marcel Proust’s sentence would take 3 months of translating to votox.

Too bad!
I wanted doing just that :grin: :rofl:

Isn’t there really an easier way for programmers to know than the current one? You would think that is already possible today.

thanks for suggestion
I acquired a Sabrent Hub USB 3.0 with its power unit and it works well for now
So now I have 4 (instead of 2) 3.0 outputs and I can save SSD life

Glad to hear you found something that will work for you!
It is nice to be able to turn off the drive when you are not using it.

From one to four SSD lives saved

the only problem is that I use one of them to backup, so I must remember to switch it ON at the proper time :grin:

But it’s just to be accustomed to it
