Vocal Adjustment② (Adjustment Screen)

Original article: CeVIO AI ユーザーズガイド ┃ 歌声の調整②(調整画面)


You can finely adjust parameters (values) like the timing of the vocalization and pitch in the adjustment screens.

Superimposed Display of Adjustment Values

When an adjustment item is selected using the round button of the adjustment tool on the toolbar, the adjustment screen will be displayed.

Clicking the text above the button (such as "PIT") can superimpose other screens on the current adjustment screen.

※When switching to an adjustment item that is being superimposed, the superimposed display state will remain.

Superimposed Display

Numerical Display

You can select the value display when hovering the mouse cursor over a parameter in "Numeral Display on Adjustment Screen" in the "Song Settings" option.

By default, only the current value is displayed, but you can select "Current value + Difference" to display it in detail in the format of "(difference) current value"; or hide it.

Edit Timing

Adjust the timing and duration of the phoneme voicing here.

Adjusting the time will automatically recalculate pitch, volume, vibrato amplitude and frequency to match the timing change. So it is more efficient to adjust the timing first and then other items.

Edit Timing

Adjust in Note/Phoneme Unit

Select Draw Tool and drag the line in the black band at the bottom to adjust the timing in note units.

Move the line forward to advance the time, and move it backward to delay the time.

adjust in note units

Drag the line on the upper side of the black band to adjust the length of consonants and vowels in phoneme units.

adjust in phoneme unit

When adjusting by note, the original length ratio of consonant and vowel is automatically maintained.

Timing Status line

Originally, timing consists of five lines for each phoneme in a lyric (e.g., "d" or "o" for "ド"), one reddish-purple phoneme line to indicate the beginning of the phoneme, and four light-purple status lines to indicate the change of sound within the phoneme.

These status lines can be display by pressing the Ctrl+I key or by turning on "Timing Status Lines" under "Line View" in the "Song" menu. Hold down Alt to toggle temporarily. * Normally it is fine to hide them, but you can show or adjust them as needed.

status line

When the status line is displayed, the timing can be adjusted in units of one status line.

When dragging in the black area to adjust in phoneme units while the status line is displayed, the status lines will be adjusted automatically.

About parameter changes

Because "CeVIO AI" infers the singing style from the score as a whole, when adding or deleting notes, changing or editing the note length and scale, the parameters of each part of the score - such as timing and pitch - will change.

Since the timing adjustment value is relative to the original value, when the parameter changes, the adjustment value also changes. In this case, each timing line that crosses adjacent lines will be reset.

(Adjustment values other than timing, such as pitch, are absolute values.)

Vowel Timing Correction

Choose it from the right-click menu of the note (or after selecting a range in the TIMING adjustment screen) to adjust vowel timing automatically to the beginning of the note.

* Consonants are moved the same amount as vowels (if it can't move, using ratio to adjust instead; if there's no space for it, pass).

* Please use it as a supplement as the mechanical correction may lose its original good listening feel.

Edit Volume

Adjust the volume of voice (the amount of vocal cord vibration, which is the source of voice) here.

You can also use dynamic marks to adjust the volume.

volume

Select the Draw Tool and drag a line to modify the volume.

The unit of volume is dB (decibels).

edit volume

Edit Pitch

Adjust the pitch of voice here. Only base pitch is adjusted, vibrato is not included.

Outside of the pitch adjustment page, when the pitch is superimposed, the pitch affected by the vibrato will also be displayed.

In the pitch adjustment page, when the amplitude or frequency of the vibrato is superimposed, the pitch affected by the vibrato will also be displayed.

pitch

Select the Draw Tool and drag a line to modify the pitch.

The unit of pitch is Hz (Hertz).

edit pitch

Edit Vibrato Amplitude

Vibrato of a song can be adjusted by amplitude and frequency, adjust the amplitude of vibrato here.

Superimposed display pitch will show the pitch with vibrato for easy adjustment.

To add vibrato to an area that doesn't have vibrato, you need to draw both amplitude and frequency in that area.

amplitude

Select the Draw Tool and drag a line to modify the amplitude.

The unit of amplitude is Cent, and 100Cent represents a half-tone up or down.

Edit Vibrato Frequency

Vibrato of a song can be adjusted by amplitude and frequency, adjust the frequency of vibrato here.

Superimposed display pitch will show the pitch with vibrato for easy adjustment.

To add vibrato to an area that doesn't have vibrato, you need to draw both amplitude and frequency in that area.

frequency

Select the Draw Tool and drag a line to modify the frequency.

The unit of period is Hz (Hertz), which means the number of shakes per second.

edit frequency

Disable Vibrato

Using "Disable Vibrato" in the "Edit Mode" of the "Song" menu, you can disable the vibrato amplitude and frequency for the selected track. This allows you to draw the vibrato on the Pitch Adjustment screen.
