Can someone point to a good open source alternative for vocaloid?
I know of Sinsy [0] but I couldn't get it working. eCantorix [1] is very old and rudimentary (it uses espeak underneath [2]).
Searching just now I see OpenUtau [3] but I have no experience with it.
Seems crazy there isn't a good FOSS solution for this.

- sporkl 4y agoI haven't used it much but OpenUtau (under active development) has been nice. Cross-platform, automatically handles internationalization issues, and the phenomizer system is very nice. Works well with the free multilingual Kumi Hitsuboku voicebank[0]. Also has integration with NNSVS (neural net based vocal synthesizer) and the entire UTAU ecosystem. I would say this is the good FOSS solution! [0]: https://cubialpha.wixsite.com/koomstar https://cubialpha.wixsite.com/koomstar

- hatsunearu 4y agothe vocaloid editor is notorious for being really hard to use.

- bearmode 4y agoOpenUtau is the main one if I recall correctly, used to be really into this stuff as a teenager. Not sure how things have changed in the 15ish years since
