Realivox Blue Walkthrough

[@BrandonJOnline]

Great. I decided to play the video at 15:52 while I was at the airport and my headphones weren't in. Needless to say, I'm now sitting in a back room with a table and 1 light. Thanks.

[@joe-vz6hx]

lol

[@bobheatliesongs]

So, I bought it, and I haven't managed to escape from it! Sitting here in front of my computer, not dressed, not showered, not eaten! But very very happy! Congrats to you Mike, and all the gang who produced this wonderful instrument!

[@subodhgodbole7266]

thank u, is it easy to use?

[@ChaplainAcosta]

LOL. TMI.

[@TheCraigAnderton]

I've tried layering this with choir samples, and the combination is pretty amazing...better than either one by itself, and blurs the dividing line between realistic and surrealistic.

[@ThrillbertMusic]

this is probably the best walkthrough for a vst i've ever seen

[@Rid-iculo-us]

I didn't even watch the end of this. Just bought it. Just what I've been waiting for.

[@composertegun]

The best vst walkthrough I've ever seen. Thank you! The product is awesome

[@TheHutchMusic]

11/10 for presentation style. A great clear voice on KZbin tutorials is rare. You speak well sir. Of course the RB looks at awesome instrument too.

[@inmusicsupport9253]

One of the most likeable product presentation videos ever. Very good!

[@AbdiPianoChannel]

Amazing software also the presenter is extremely professional with great attitude and high level of speaking skills.

[@MorisoniProductions]

Super-clever programming and a surprisingly simple GUI. Brilliant. Thanks for the clear video explanations. It's always a pleasure to see real craftsmanship in action.

[@IonactiveConsulting]

Like someone said below, I found out about this through a FB debate on choirs. This has moved to the top of my long list of 'must buy' products. Well done. Fantastic!

[@elimooremusic]

Yeah I just want to join the choir here and talk about how great your presentations are. Honest and straightforward, great stuff

[@mimojapan]

I'm not sure how many times I watched this clip already and being amazed every time. Even though there are approaches by other vendors to create such "instruments" coming up, I think none yet does currently match my needs better than the Realivox Blue and Ladies

[@mimojapan]

OK, this is what happened after four hours of purchasing this product (and NOT reading the manual). After some wildly clicking around, this sample (inspired by this clip) emerged . I admit that it's a bit clumsy but I see MUCH potential and will extend this soon

[@williamsterben]

So much work must have gone into this, amazing!

[@napotronix]

That's an excellent demo. I'm sold.

[@producerplays]

I liked the whole video, but for some reason i felt compelled to like when the part came up with the brutal honesty about the limitations. too much respect.

[@cometogether420]

best intro on youtube ever

[@johnl9677]

First of all, this voice sounds GREAT. Better than Vocaloid, in my opinion. And this is probably the best vocal synthesis demo that I have seen - informative and entertaining. My problem is with the interface. You showed me the very good technical reasons why different vowel and consonants need to be combined based on "where you are" and "where you are going". But expecting me to break down my lyrics into the code needed to generate realistic sounding vocals is probably more than I am going to be able to pull off. If you could combine this excellent sound library with a front end that can analyze my lyrics and generate the the pseudocode needed to produce good sounding vocals, that's something I might consider buying. Again, I am really impressed with the sound of the instrument, but the interface seems intimidating to me.

[@Realitone]

Totally fair comment. You're not alone in preferring that the front end would require less fiddling. We're hoping to be able to make it that way, and include an English "translator" that does the conversion for you. It's challenging, though, so we're making no promises. Yet. ;-)

[@corkbender]

This looks incredible.

[@wojciechjastrzebski5572]

Hi, I used to write a comment here with an example of the words Ave Maria: aah veh mah ree yah . Now with the Voice Changer application I did a test with German . Because English is used in the application, you cannot write in German letters. I'm sure that in Realivox Blue can also sing in German. Try to enter this text Eesh leebe deesh, or German sentence Ich liebe dich (I love you) . In this way, in the Voice Changer application I made the text "robotic runner" for my song in the style of Kraftwerk . I wrote: roboter loyfer (original word in German : Roboterläufer.) It clearly came out in German. Try it.

[@Realitone]

Very cool!

[@cjviolinist]

Does it work with fl studio. ...? This is great and where can I get it?

[@Realitone]

Yes, it will definitely work in FL Studio. You will want to first get the free Kontakt Player, though. That's a VST for FL Studio. Blue runs inside Kontakt. (It's less complicated than I'm making it sound.) You can get Kontakt Player (for free) here: www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/samplers/kontakt-5-player/free-download/ Download that, play with it a bit, then when you feel comfortable with it, you can get Realivox Blue here: realitone.com

[@cjviolinist]

[@vapordepositionmusic1901]

I see the comments that Realitone is currently working on an update. If bought now what would update pricing be as a ballpark? I bought the package for Kontact Player this morning. Just a note your installation instructions for player need to be updated. All you need to do now is set the serial number in Native Access and point to the Realivox Blue folder you extracted to.

[@Realitone]

Yep, the instructions could definitely use an update, but we're waiting on that until the update is finished. As far as the upgrade goes, we're not sure how much that will cost. Most likely somewhere between $0 (yes, we're considering that) and $50.

[@dezinerAhmad]

@@Realitone Realitone treating the singer so well for this Kontakt library

[@frankmacchiamusic]

What a great instructional video! I will definitely be picking this up. One question that I'm unclear about (maybe you mentioned it but I missed it)- After I construct a bunch of WordBuilder phrases and set them to keyswitches, can I save the whole bank of phrases so that if I'm working on a song and I need to close my sequencer and continue working the next day all those phrases I typed in will be there the next day? I'm imagining that if I just save the Kontakt/Realivox patch it will save all those phrases I typed in? Also is there a way to save a ton of phrases and them load them into Realivox instead of having to recreate them each time I work on a new song?

[@sohn87]

Woooow mother father You son of brilliance!!!!

[@jeffreyclark1827]

The lack of inclusion of a schwa-type vowel is a huge oversight in most of these programs. Not having one blocks of much of English (as well as French). I can't fathom why such a foundational sound is universally excluded. Also, would "I" come out better by crossfading the aa/ee rather than treating them as separate syllables? Probably something better done in post (render the two syllables into separate tracks and fade between them). I also wanted to say that the system sounds amazing! There are very few artifacts from switching between samples, and very little engine noise. Well done!

[@Realitone]

Jeffrey Clark I hear you. Our original intent was not to do full on English. In fact, that's why I show the example she can't sing quite right in the video. However, lots of people (like you) DO wish she did full on English, so I brought her back and recorded the missing vowels, as well as a few extra consonants. We hope to release that update later this summer.

[@pojekmedia]

i almost cried, so beautiful

[@LincolnLammusic]

what is the resolution of the samples>?

[@Realitone]

24 bit at 44.1k.

[@tomkent4656]

IMO you are on your way to giving Vocaloid a run for its money. I feel sure that future upgrades will increase the number of vocal phenomes, and perhaps offer some method of adding even more expression.

[@5ammy13]

Haha the polylegato in the starting with the oo articulation sounds just like the choral theme from Manchester In The Sea. Beautiful library by the way :-D

[@JohnJewel]

Long time coming

[@acata100realcatnotadog5]

[@TruthSurge]

Realifox?

[@boujee.pavlov681]

at 14:43 did you changed word ROHM to TOOSH, pressing key, or did it changed automaticly after 4 or 8 counts??

[@Realitone]

That's a great question. Normally I would switch from Vowel Legato to Phrase Legato (there are keyswitches for that), but there is another undocumented way that you can advance to the next syllable: If you're in Vowel legato mode (like I am in the video), if you end a phrase (no keys are held down), and then start a new phrase within a half second after ending the previous phrase, then Blue will move to the next syllable. It's a handy little trick! Of course, if you wait more than a half second, then Blue goes back to the beginning of the phrase, as you would expect.

[@roxnroll8050]

What technical witchery is this?! LOL J/K - this is insanely amazing :) I just bought it and am blown away by the power, yet interface simplicity. My learning curve was the length of this video.

[@Metalpazallteway]

Very nice it's elaborate I have a question though, are her vocals all under one harmonic tone or are there separate round robins for every note? Also what is the limit of fast and slow tempo before her voice starts sounding robotic. Also for future ambiances, please add the feature of separate microphones positions for more audio freedom. But very nice review highly sought out library

[@Realitone]

That would be great, but bear in mind this sort of instrument is really time intensive to make, because there are around 20,000 samples as it is now. If we added round robins, that would multiply that number, which would add tremendously to how long it takes to edit. It's the same with dynamics - she sings softly, but if we added harder tones, it would add a ton of work.

[@Metalpazallteway]

Very true, I just thought it add more color and realism to it all on top of what the library already brings. But like I said, well done

[@TrickArrow]

This is amazing!

[@mrkittydm]

“It’s lit”

[@mainsailsound983]

it's 2023 and this is still a cool plugin! Maybe someone could tell me how to make her sing "arms"? Can't seem to make it happen. Also, there is no "i" sound, as in "little".

[@AdrianVrabie]

SERIOUSLY!! You did that! AMAZING :) I was thinking about analyzing how consonants end depending on the vowels and then use some algorithms to glue them. Did you just put one some wave on the other or did you use some special algos to glue the sound waves?

[@Realitone]

Thank you! It was a ton of chopping, and then a very complicated set of "decisions" in the code, depending on what the order of consonants and vowels are.

[@1kiahson]

I bought Realivox Blue yesterday and I played with it until about 4:30 am. I really like the program but can I ask a question. Why is there no I vowel?

[@Realitone]

Thanks Kison B ! Here's a video that explains how to get an I sound: Fly with Realivox Blue

[@akosay]

so realistic..i bought this online but can't plug the vst into FL studio12. is it possible? thanks

[@Realitone]

It's definitely possible. Email us at support at realitone com and we'll get you going. (We rarely check our KZbin comments.)

[@ronnyb5890]

it's a native instruments kontakt (player,if you bought the player version) sound library,so you have to install kontakt in FL studio first,and then install the soundbank into kontakt,that's all

[@AbdiPianoChannel]

I bought this software. How do you play Arabic scale

[@Realitone]

It's a major scale, but with a flat 2nd and flat 6th. Flat 7th is optional. So in C, it would be C, Db, E, F, G, Ab, B (or Bb), C.

[@chimeforest]

Really cool! Any plans of doing something similar with a male vocalist? 'Cause that would be awesome for duets and small choirs.

[@Realitone]

Thanks! We do plan release male versions, although we're waaaayyyy behind on doing it. ;-)

[@gslide06]

I appreciate the effort that went into this. I think what prevents me from purchase is the lack of singers in both this and the more expensive ladies version. I'd like more diverse ranges, dare I say grittier. Like a Shirley Manson/Debbie Harry. The Enya like vocal just isn't enough for "rock", for my style anyway. Good stuff though.

[@subodhgodbole7266]

ur comment is helpful

[@Metalpazallteway]

Check out realivox ladies thats also more attractive

[@XEVIAN360]

Awesome video and product! :)

[@TruthSurge]

That's awesome - if you like the tone of her voice and having only one projection tone throughout and no round-robins. Take this, add a 2nd set of samples (yeah, 24,000 total) and do a louder projection of everything, double that to create a variant for each sample randomly triggered and this would be mind-blowing! Or not. I guess if you need that, just hire a singer.

[@Realitone]

If we did 2 round robins and a second velocity layer, that would quadruple the number of samples to record and edit. No thanks. ;-)

[@TruthSurge]

yeah, I was just thinking about how maybe it could be a little different from play to play. It shows up more when you do those staccato chords. Anyway, thanks for the walkthrough. Very interesting.

[@CapitaineGMC]

I still haven't figured out how to assign syllables to keys. Each time I try, the whole sentence gets assigned to that specific key :/

[@hashanmadusanka3431]

Awesome.

[@CrankCase08]

Is this only for female voice? Also, what about alto and mezzo-soprano ranges as opposed to the soprano of the videos? Furthermore, why not issue a trial version? This would be useful to test how it would work in conjunction with effect plugins such as compression. My observations from this video: 1. The 's' is a bit too short when it precedes 'tr'. 2. Some of the consonant sounds need to have a lower formant because they are too light. 3. This also needs an 'ay' sound with the vowel set.

[@Realitone]

CrankCase08 We do plan to have other singers, although they take a long time for us to edit. Your other observations are valid and we plan to address those.

[@skymaster1a]

Is it possible to play a phrase , all in the same key?

[@Realitone]

Yes. Use the red "Repeat Key" (at B2) which plays whatever the last note you played. So for example, if you want to play a string of 5 G4 notes in a row, you would play: G4 - D2 - G4 - D2 - G4, which will sound like: G4 - G4 - G4 - G4 - G4. Give it a try and you'll see what I mean.

[@skymaster1a]

[@tjosselin]

Beautiful voice ! I wonder if this plugin can be used for French vocals ?-)

[@Realitone]

Thanks! Blue is best for Latin or enigmatic lyrics, so French (and English!) can be a challenge for her. We have an update coming up, though, where sampled more vowels and consonants. English (and probably French) will be much easier then. We hope to release that this summer.

[@HipHopAus]
