This is my first GERMAN song Cover with Synthesizer V
“Übermorgen”
Maybe one day I’ll try to cover a French song also…

You did a pretty good job with the German pronunciation. It would be nice if we could get a proper German version of the voices at some point.

I believe that it is my job and the job of many of us in the community to make this fantastic software as popular as possible by performing these kinds of ( extravagant) experiments on our favorite languages.
Expectation will not be met by just standing still and asking for our wishes to be granted.
The tool has been made available to us, it is up to us to show appreciation and move together with the developers in the right direction.

Hi, @AleDzMusicProd ,
as a German-speaking user, I think your work is amazingly good!
I always found it too much effort to reproduce German texts clearly and understandably with the available language versions.
I would therefore be interested in your workflow, how you entered the German text or phonemes in Synth V, with which language models (English / Spanish / … or mixed?) and other tools, e.g. phoneme translation tools.
I also have several voices, including all from Eclipsed Sound, and have only worked with the English language models so far.
In my attempts with them, I failed with vowels like “Ü”…
So, I am very curious to see how you approach this!
Thanks in advance for some more detailed information!

Japanese ‘u’ is closer to ‘ü’ and might be worth a try. I don’t know about other umlauts, though. Maybe there’s something in the Chinese languages.

Hi and thank you.
It’s almost completely written with the English model. A few minor corrections as for the “ü” are made with japanese “u” and very very rarely is Spanish been used.
The major and important tool, for the phoneme translation, that you have to use is your “ear” and then you can combine all the stuff together to make an understandable sentence.
Sometime you can write words as they are, but mostly you have to write something that just sounds like the expression that must be heard.

Wonderful pioneering work!
I hope Dreamtonics introduces long awaited languages like French, Italian and German soon.
Thanks for your inspiring share.

Alessandro - for you it’s largely about your hearing. From time to time I return to your SVP file of my song Vampire. When converting from wav to midi by synthesizer, the analysis is performed only - English, Japanese and Mandarin and Auto. Yet your track is mainly based on Spanish. Sometimes for a single note you used English, Japanese and Mandarin. Sometimes you entered phonemes directly. You also had a recording of my singing and you used it to capture the specifics of Czech pronunciation and I can only learn from your ability to hear the pattern of a word in a given language. Therefore, I will be grateful for every European language (now only English and Spanish) that will be added to the current ones. I apologize to users of Japanese, Mandarin, Cantonese, and perhaps Korean, but at 74 years old, I can’t fathom the pronunciation secrets of otherwise beautiful-sounding Asian voices in Synthesizer V Pro.

ü is Chinese y. It sounds identical to the y in Chinese

Here is my most recent German language upload using English and Spanish phonemes:
Heinrich Schütz: Habe deine Lust an dem Herren (1639) with Synthesizer V

The voices, for me, sometimes sound a little bit diffuse and artificial, but the German pronunciation seems to me well done, again. (Of course a German voicebank still is on my wishlist.)
By the way, as you surely are music-historically interested: “Kleiner geistlichen Concerten” is not quite the correct title of the collection which contains “Habe deine Lust an dem Herren”. The title is “Kleine geistliche Concerte”. “Kleiner geistlichen Concerten” is only a fragment of “Anderer Theil Kleiner geistlichen Concerten” which means: “The other [= second] part of the Little Sacred Concertos”. In English it’s both times “Little Sacred Concertos”, but in German “Kleine Geistliche Konzerte” is Nominativ, “Kleiner geistlichen Concerten” was Genitiv in German of Schütz’ time, today one would say “der Kleinen geistlichen Konzerte”. Uiuiui, complicated for me to try to explain…
Couldn’t you provide Dreamtonics with a German voicebank?
That’s fantastic. Thank you for the information! As you have figured out, German is not my native language so I appreciate any corrections you might find.
Theoretically, I can compile a German voice bank but I need to understand the coding schema that is compatible with Synth V 
Hey, a new German cover is coming tonight. I’ll be waiting for your comments.

Really great work - but …in german we would say “da ist noch Luft nach oben” 
Means. “there is room for improvement” - but now i know how people feel when they hear us germans singing in english.

Klar, mit den Mitteln die wir zur Verfügung haben, ist es so ziemlich alles was wir auf eine Sprache die es eigentlich noch gar nicht gibt, erreichen können.
Das Cover wurde übrigens mit Version 1 des SynthesizerV gemacht.
Ich bin gespannt zu hören, was deine Meinung sein wird, zum neuen Cover song das in einigen Stunden erscheint, das ich mit V2 (mit mehr Edit - Möglichkeiten) fertiggestellt habe.

Echt super gemacht!
Das Editing jeder einzelnen Phrase muss ja eine richtige Sisyphusarbeit gewesen sein!
