DWhat composers say
It has the potential to be a game-changer for sheet music professionals. The ability to hear lyrics sung directly from notation software streamlines everything from arranging to client previews.
Cantai is an indispensable tool for quick vocal mockups in preview/demo work. It has improved quality and ease of use over comparable products.
Cantai represents a paradigm shift for musicians working with the human voice. It generates perfectly pitched lyrics in real time, following the score on notation software.
