Agent given a vocal-synth repo builds branching acoustic-tube singing synthesis

TinfoilTricorn · x · 2026-11-10

Developer jamesonhodge showed off a vocal synth that models the vocal tract as a network of branching acoustic tubes, instead of stitching and pitch-shifting phoneme recordings like Vocaloid. He's tuning it against recordings of real singers to improve naturalness — and is already impressed by how cool it sounds.

In a related repost, gavinpurcell handed the repo to an advanced model (Fable 5.2 via his Claude agent) and let it run free, marveling at the creative choices frontier models now make on their own.
