I bumped into this page: http://research.microsoft.com/srg/whistmusic/ when I was browsing the internet smile.gif

Scroll down to the bottom, and you'll hear some pretty amazing songs! Sung by text to speech synthesized voices!

It'll be awhile before they hit the top ten, but still quite an advancement. There doesn't seem to be an end to where all this technology is taking humankind. Next thing will be a computer to walk your dog...

Wow, now that will be an interesting toy to play with on the pc. Specially since Im not really a good singer and its hard to get someone to sing to the music I make. Thats pretty cool.

Is it just me or does this seem to be one of the weirdest and probably most pointless things Microsoft has ever developed? Would people go out and buy a CD of Microsoft Sam singing "You Have Selected Microsoft Sam As The Computer's Default Voice"? It'd certainly not make the top ten.

Wow... they don't sound they if it was sang by a computer..
Anyway, it is possible if I could download the software? And is it free for download?
I cannot find a download link there...

Also, this may be somewhat related to Speakonia posted on the board earlier..

Mark and melanie should release a single, i'd buy it wink.gif It's quirky and cute. Can you imagine it, if you got a good enough computer voice you could be making millions out of a computerised popstar and everyone could do it!

wow, i never knew computers were be able to sing. Also, I would never have guessed that the voices which are used on Microsoft's Narrator would be used for the computer's singing.
The audio clips on that site are good. I'm really impressed at how far technology has actually gone, what with computers now being able to sing as well as talk.

I agree with jlhaslip's post above. I doubt that in a couple of years, singing would be the most advanced thing computers could do. In a couple of years, computers will most likely be able to do a lot more than just singing. Looking at singing in a couple of years will look old.

I think if Microsoft did release full length songs similar to the clips on the site, they would become very popular and could even make the top part of the charts.

    This was inspired by the other guys post about the speed of light. So the new thing is using light
    waves to do computing =) Of course it isnt really working yet but I thought it was really cool so
    i figured i would post something here. The basic working thing is that you supercool atoms to
    within a few degrees of absolute zero. Then you send a beam of light through them - and - viola, a
    baby can crawl faster than light. What happens is that as the light wave passes through the frozen
    atoms its speed is dramitcally reduced. So much so that the speed of light goes fr....
