VOCALOID is a vocal−synthesizing software that enables song writers to generate authentic−sounding singing on their PCs by simply typing in the lyrics and music notes of their compositions. The software synthesizes the sound from "vocal libraries" of recordings of actual singers, retaining the vocal qualities of the original singing voices to reproduce realistic vocals. The software also features simple commands that enable users to add expressive effects − such as vibrato and pitch bends − to their synthesized vocals. Additional releases to the range of vocal libraries currently available will broaden the range of voices and singing styles that can be generated by VOCALOID. VOCALOID can generate singing in Japanese and English.

Sence forever Music performance it’s an abstract and ceremonial experience, being the performer or the spectator. The atmosfere of a music show shake people’s focus, and actions, leaving space for interpretation and reactions, that could be noticed by moviments of dancing, singing or aplausing. Today to create this type of atmosfere, there are two fundamental conditions: 1−sound(music) 2− visual show (lights). By this terms, is generated MUTE’s concept. Yamaha Vocaloid software is the base and the destination for this concept.

LUCE,MUSICA,MOVIMENTO,CENOGRAFIA,TECNOLOGIA

VOCALOID is an entirely NEW kind of instrument, that uses the natural tone and articulation of a real human voice as its source − allowing the user to synthesize incredible vocals, the like of which have never been experienced before. It can also sound remarkably like a real singer if required, with an unprecedented degree of realism for a synthesizer. With Vocaloid, you will have your own virtual version of Miriam Stockley’s voice at your disposal in your own studio! With Vocaloid, creating your own backing vocals, in your own lyrics, is a realistic proposition − even for complex harmonies and arrangements. And as you gradually develop your Vocaloid editing skills, you will find that with patience lead vocal lines are also possible, thanks to the arsenal of expression tools provided, which permit editing and manipulation of the finest nuances. IMAGINE what all this could mean for your music Now you can COMMUNICATE emotion so directly. You can add HUMANITY to ANY production in ANY style, with your own virtual vocalist. You can create backing vocals in harmonies for your tracks. With skill and application you can create unprecedented vocal realism. OR... you can live in the exciting world between human and machine, where MIRIAM can even provide vocals that sound like they were performed by a superhuman virtuoso android. Using Vocaloid in this way, as a true hybrid of human voice and synthesizer, the potential for innovation is limited only by your own imagination.

MIRIAM is a virtual female vocalist modelled on the voice of Miriam Stockley, and when MIRIAM is installed into your PC she will allow you to create synthesized singing of unprecedented quality and remarkable realism. MIRIAM can sing ANY words you wish in English − literally anything − be they beautiful lyrics or comical trivialities, Monteverdi madrigals or manic chants. You can create solo vocal tracks or backing vocals in almost any style of singing, with any lyrics you want. You enter notes, type in lyrics, and the software renders the synthesized vocal. Then add expression to taste, and render again.

LEON is a virtual male soul vocalist modelled on a real professional singer, and when he is installed into your PC he will allow you to create synthesized singing with an unprecedented human quality. LEON will sing ANY words you ask him to in English − literally anything. You can create singing in any lyrics you want. You enter notes, type in lyrics, and the software renders the synthesized vocal. Then add expression to taste, and render again. LEON is under your total control. What will YOU make LEON sing? Do you simply want him to perform your lyrical ideas in a rough form as an aid to your songwriting process? Or will you use his freedom from human limitations to create stunningly innovative and experimental vocal effects? He can sing over a superb pitch range, he can sing much faster than a human could if you want him to, as fast as you like in fact, and he can jump any interval yet hit every note beautifully, IF that’s want YOU want him to do. And he’ll NEVER tire or complain.

Mr Mike Oldfield kindly used VOCALOID in his latest album "LIGHT & SHADE". Visit his website for more details: http://www.mikeoldfield.com/ In the track "The Gate", he added "Ooh" and "Yah" to make a chorus harmonized perfectly. In the track "Tears Of An Angel", he put some lyrics by making them like echoes with the same melodies as the ones played by the keyboard. For this track, he says that this was his first track created by using VOCALOID, and by mixing in his voice, it achieved a nice thick choral effect.

For a performance that’s true to life, users can control the timing of each note (precise position/length), volume, attack, crescendo or diminuendo, pitch bend (amount, and positionable in time), glide (portamento), resonance (frequency/bandwidth/amplitude), harmonics, noise, brightness, clearness and gender factor.

"I can think of a number of creative situations where Vocaloid would certainly be useful, particularly for backing vocals. I’m very keen to see where Yamaha and Zero−G take this product next, with the release of Miriam being the obvious next highlight. Vocaloid is a brave undertaking, and hats off to both Yamaha and Zero−G for having the ambition to take such a significant first step!..." − VOCALOID LEON & LOLA Review feature in SOUND ON SOUND Magazine, UK.

MUTE has the intention to be a place where tecnology and music are united. His image is all about that. Reavels to be a show stage like a tend (perforated panel) when looked outside, where nothing is clear, everything are ligths and shadows coming from the inside. In the inside, MUTE is "pixelated", white transluced blocks whith white ligths inside, are grouped to make walls, chairs, counters, defining the diferent spaces, the diferent experinces as the visitor walk through. A Musical experience and his atmosphere is what the visitor can live inside MUTE.

FACOLTÀ DI ARCHITETTURA08/09

1 − entrance − zone where are diponiblable headphones to listen the diferents sounds that will be projectd in space 2 and space 3; are too diposed 4 seets with information of Vocaloid to the visiter start to understant the software; 2 − listen and learn room − the target of this zone, is a big wall of blocks where are writed words of a song("harder, better, faster stronger DaftPunk"). As the song is playing(in the headphones), lights the blocks change the color as the ritm of the song turning "on" or "off" the diferent words. There’s also a projection screen, where is being projected a video of Vocaloid using tha same song at the same time, so the visiter can understand better this. 3 − live room − this place is concepted for a "live experience".there’re a zone with small banches and a zone with a computer, to look like a zone audiance a and stage. So in this zone the visitor can experiment the program in a live situation, and others can assist to this kind of live concert, because all the steps made in the computer can be seen in another projection screen; 4 − testimonial − to be close to a true story, another projection screen is playing a video about the experience of the musician Mike Oldfiel with Vocaloid software.
