The East West Choirs sing your lyrics. It's not another Ahhhh or
Ohhhh
sample ;).

any technical info on that? free software doing the same, research
papers
(easily available), anything?
I think you only need the resources/time/skill to sample all the
phonemes for various choir combinations, add glue and logic, the
interface, some usual ADSR stuff and filtering, reverb here and there, a
pinch of randomness, and your done :)
Another way could be to have 4 singers sing the lines various times
recording them multi-trak, each take with different miking positions and
EQing (or keeping the mike still in the room and having them move around
each time). If the singers were good enough they'd be able to change
their voice quality slightly at each take to mimic multiple people. Of
course you need 4 singers if you wanted a full SATB choir, probably just
a good baritone and dark soprano would suffice to have a mixed choir
effect for a monophonic or 2-voice line.
Don't explain it to me or this community, explain this to all the
companies, that are not interested to take care about Linux.
Was just trying to give a slightly different point of view :)
"East West
Choirs" is one of many products users want to have and that are not
available for Linux. I'm not talking about my needs. And please imagine
users that need such software, e.g. for making the music for a
commercial. If a musician gets less money, the musician can't spent time
and resources. Btw. I would like to have such a choir, but I don't need
it. I never used it. I don't have Windows installed and I don't own a
Mac. Patrick's wish is to make companies aware about the capabilities of
Linux. Unfortunately Linux does not have the abilities many users wish
to have.
By the way there are many many reports on-line of people frustrated for
the hours spent to get the iLok stuff working for these applications,
contacting bad customer support etc., probably just as much time as
Linux users spend hacking their systems :)
I'm not speaking against Linux and I'm not looking for solutions how to
e.g. replace a replacement for singers by singers.
I hope now it's clear what I tried to say and I don't need to add
another mail regarding to this topic.
It's clear for me, and the email wasn't personally addressed to you. I
was using your response to add another point of discussion ;)L
Lorenzo.
