Swapping voices with AI
New AI tools and techniques are now coming onto the market at such as pace that something like voice swap is almost „old hat“. And so, Voice-Swap is not necessarily the first, but in comparison, it is one of the fairest of the voice swaps. This is because the website involves the singers whose voices were used to train the AI.
We live in exciting times when it comes to music and AI. How does Artificial Intelligence help musicians and producers in their day-to-day work? Which tools will fundamentally change the way we work and produce? With Voice-Swap, you can convert your vocals into those of professional studio singers and also swap them directly in the song.
Was is Voice-Swap?
When it comes to AI-supported voice swapping, there are major websites such as ElevenLabs, Lalals and Uberduck, which allow users to replace their own vocals with those of (often prominent) voices. What most of them have in common is the fact that the originators of their training data, that is, the material they used to train their AIs, were neither financially compensated nor asked for permission.
Voice-Swap has a fair and transparent approach to this. This is because not only has licensed training data been used, in other words, AI models have been trained with the singers‘ voices with their permission. In addition, the singers whose voices are used for the voice swap receive a financial share. So it‘s a fairer system.
Swap your voice with VoiceSwap – What‘s the point?
If it‘s not about making your own vocals sound like a celebrity, voice swapping can be a real musical added value in music production. Basically, all voice swappers work in the same way: you record the melody in your head, singing it halfway straight, and the AI (from Voice-Swap) converts the acapella into the professional singing voice of one of the singers. There‘s even a rapper!
In addition, Voice-Swap has introduced a completely new feature to make your work even easier. Previously, you could only upload and convert acapella recordings without music behind them. Now you can even upload a complete song directly. The AI separates the stems and the vocals are converted with just one click - it‘s called a Stem-Swap.
