I should have explained this sooner!
The Easiest Way to Make Realistic UST Files Using Praat!
I am incapable of understanding pitch. I can hear it and replicate it with my voice, but I can't understand it. This may sound like I'm just not trying hard enough until I explain that it's part of the same learning disorder that leaves me unable to mentally do basic multiplication or division. I'm like a computer with no math library!
So... How do I make usts? I started by using the Melodia plugin for Sonic Visualizer and REAPER. It was wonderful to be able to do that, but it was painfully slow and finicky.
Eventually, I stumbled upon Hataori-P's work with Praat. And from then on, I could not be stopped!
Here's an example!
Before the read more break, I will explain that this requires source audio. I've been creating more and more usts for this blog using my voice, but the vast majority of what I do involves vocals isolated from songs using AI. The script I use is specifically for realism and uses CVVC style aliases. The
original script was for CV and VCV.
This method requires a CVVC style bank with diphonic aliases. This will not work with systems like VCCV as this script can only create combinations of two different phonemes, not anything like CCV.
