What is AI Singing Voice Synthesis?
TL;DR
Technology that synthesizes a human-like singing vocal from input notes and lyrics. Used for vocaloid-style production, demo vocals, and music creation.
AI Singing Voice Synthesis: Definition & Explanation
AI singing voice synthesis takes a melody (score) and lyrics as input and synthesizes a vocal track that sings naturally like a human. It has evolved from sampling-based vocaloids to deep-learning models with higher expressiveness and naturalness, expanding from demo vocals to use as production vocals. Synthesizer V, CeVIO, VOCALOID, and Suno (song generation including vocals) are related. Cautions: (1) reproducing or mimicking a real singer's voice without consent can infringe likeness/publicity or voice rights and cause impersonation trouble; (2) confirm the rights and licensing of the audio data used for training; (3) layering a synthesized vocal over an existing song requires the song's rights clearance; (4) selling or distributing songs is commercial use, so confirm the voicebank and each tool's license.
