Zero-G Vocaloid Lola

Vocaloid Lola description:

LOLA is a virtual female soul vocalist modelled on a real professional singer, and when she is installed into your PC she will allow you to create synthesized singing of unprecedented quality and realism. LOLA will sing ANY words you ask her to in English - literally anything - be they beautiful lyrics or comical trivialities, Monteverdi madrigals or manic chants. You can create vocal tracks of soulful 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. LOLA is under your total control, and the really mind-blowing thing is - she can truly sound like a professional singing voice. With practice you can learn the skills to synthesize singing with LOLA that will fool your friends - they will believe they are listening to a real singer performing.
