REALIVOX – BLUE:
It starts with the voice. Blue is my go-to singer when I want that ultra-pretty tone. Check out the audio demos and see if you don’t agree.
WORDBUILDER:
Six vowels and 23 consonants give you the tools to create your own words and phrases.** But we went deeper than just sampling a bunch of vowels and consonants. Way deeper. Consider these elements:
An “s” singing into an “ee” sounds different from an “s” singing into an “oo.” (Try it yourself. Listen to how your own “s” will sound different, depending on the vowel.) So each consonant was recorded separately going in and out of each vowel. There are two and a half octaves of “k” samples (32 samples) that go into “ah.” Another 32 of “k” into “eh.” And so on. For each consonant, that’s six sets for each vowel.
** Note that although Realivox Blue can sing many words and phrases, she is limited to the six vowels we’ve sampled.

Sounds good in the You Tube clips.
 
I like the way the web page banner says "Offical Release 26 May 2014, (or maybe May 27th. Because you know how we are"
 
I can think of two other developers where "Offical Release 26 May 2014, (or maybe 2017. Because you know how we are" would be more appropriate.

Mike has a good sense of humor.
I'm guessing this was a difficult lib build with lots of tweaking involved.
Probably still a few issues in this release, sure he'll have on going updates.

Just picked it up. The word builder is pretty simple and sounds good. When you string consonants and vowels together you get different samples depending on the combinations. If you set it to s-ee you you won't just get an s and an ee but a sample of s+ee. So it sounds good.
One question: where is the "i"?

Went for it (DUH!).
 
I figure if I get two songs out of it it's cheaper than hiring session singers. From there on out, clear profit.

Yep, the profit part is key.

I've been trying to weigh the current KH library and Friedlander violin specials, unsure of which would better suit my needs.   But after listening to these demos it seems like I now have a three way tie.   
 
 
Hehehe... I said three way.

It is a lot of fun to play with, though I'm still having trouble getting my head wrapped around it. I got busy with a few other things, but I want to get back to it over the next few days.
Note to if possible use both a consonant and a vowel in every syllable.
 
This was my early attempt at the different vowel sounds, I'm going to make a second attempt since I think I've improved somewhat, especially using legatto.

Then I tried a bit of an old hymn, again it can be improved.

Thanks, bigkat!   It's nice to hear what someone unfamiliar with the software is able to do essentially out of the gate.  It certainly does seem as though it has good potential....

What's the download file size? I only see 12,000 samples listed.
