  • I've been using a new tool, Descript - www.patflynn.com/descript - for editing audio and video, and it's definitely made my life a lot easier. It's actually a game-changer. However, within the tool, there's a feature called Overdub that allows the program to read text in your voice, without you having to record it. Let me show you:
    So what do you think? Useful, or not?
    Also, here's a link to a video where I show you more about how awesome this tool is for general editing for podcasts and videos: • This New Audio & Video...

      @@flaviomorofurian5271 A.I. might, but Machine Learning is machine learning because there are forms that are parameter-less. samples yes of course, but the collective data we already have can do the OP's idea very easily already today. weve had hundreds of thousands of existing recorded audio to train from for years.
      to the OP: you only need a believable voice assigned to a character.. not a forensically accurate voice. a trained tool can analyze and guess a large majority of context of who is speaking.. a configure file can assign character name to voice. and there are ML models that can take guesses at the "intent" of the words ( the emotion)
      i bet an ML generated short story is already possible. with voice talent. and we are pretty much there for an expressive, stylized video result too. ( not film quality yet, but shortfilm project quality 90% there)

The more I think about it based off of what you’ve shown in the video using someone’s vocal tonality and kind of making it midi based. You could type your lyrics in a plug-in and every time that a note is triggered it could read the next line on the midi grid, in the correct notation. This of absolutely fascinating and could work in metal vocals too

    The overdub sounds a little too clean when played right next to a recording. By itself, it's pretty great, but side by side like that the difference is a bit jarring. I imagine at some point they'll have the AI mimic any kind of mic and background noise when overdubbing. Not dissimilar to how you can add certain grains to photo/videos to mimic different films.

Unfortunately he recorded through a gaming headset into his phone so the quality was pretty terrible. Using their new Studio Sound feature, it legit sounds like he recorded it in a proper microphone with no background noise.

    I think this is a pretty amazing tool....not just for editing and overdubbing pretty quickly but it also brings consistency to your work. Pretty useful for coaching/learning videos and can be integrated with LMS platforms for delivering engaging content. Will.be good for educational institutions as well as for talent management in corporate environments.

Being able to hear a difference in room really doesn't say much about how good something fakes your voice, it's not a reverb..

    Awesome tool. I've installed voicemail systems for many years for small businesses. I had to record all their menus and options in my own voice because no one in the office would want to use their own voice ...or take the time to do it.

    I can't wait until they add video processing. This would make it so easy to fix a word here and there to save mega amounts of time editing to get the final videos perfect. This would be amazing to get acquired by TH-cam and integrate directly into the site. I did about two hours of presentation content earlier this year. I initially recorded, manually transcribed, rerecorded a couple times, and edited the whole thing together multiple times. Creating the content took 3-4 months. These tools do so many things automatically which saves so much time! I can see the project taking weeks instead of months with these tools.

    BTW... because you read the text about the pinguines..... Here is something really awesome done by nature: these pinguines staying there in the coldest times of the year, guarding and nesting their egg, are the males only. While the females head to the equator to gain weight and grow strong, the males stay with the egg. Hereby they stand very closely in a circle and every about 15 minutes, the males from the center move to the outside circle. This is how they keep each other and the eggs warm, while suffering great weight loss. Awesome fathers, these guys. ;-)

    This program has some huge potential, but I can hear it getting confused about what is actually your voice, and what are the reflections in the room that the microphone is picking up. Plus, it may be an AC on or something, but the high noise floor may also aid to this. A few things can be done to help this - 1) Move the microphone closer to your mouth, 2) Eliminate as much background noise as possible, and 3) Treat your room to discourage as many acoustic nuances and reflections. I can actually see this program doing quite well when you train it in the right environment. It's pretty cool, in my opinion, but in the wrong hands, can quickly become an asset for malicious activity.
