Voice Morphing

 INTRODUCTION

Voice morphing is a really interesting topic to ponder on and the way AI has progressed, voice morphing has just become more than just sound manipulation.

Over the past few years, there has been plenty of progress already being made in the field of audio and voice processing, from autotune to literal morphing.

In this article, lets see how voice morphing can be used in everyday life and how it comes to be.

Voice morphing is an emerging technology that gained popularity in industry, particularly in entertainment industry to enhance the quality of voice, from the last few decades. However, the voice morphing tools are also being used by predators to deceive people. Therefore, it poses a great challenge to public to determine whether a voice is morphed or not. Voice morphing is a technique to algorithmically change one person's voice into another person's voice. In this paper, we conduct a case study that evaluates the hypothesis that do voice morphing tools/techniques create a successful illusion in a listener mind. To evaluate, our hypothesis we propose an elementary voice morphing technique, based on a set of mask vectors; then we implement the said technique as a voice morphing tool in a visual language Pure Data; and finally we evaluate this technique by designing a test bed. Our results indicate that voice morphing technology may create an illusion in a listener mind, effectively.

To achieve voice morphing, we firstly, gather some training data so the voice gets some personality, some depth to it. This is just oversimplifying the process, but this is how we train the data model.

Next, we take the input from the user, the user provides some voice sample, and the voice morphing data model, changes the characteristics of the user sample voice to the trained data it has.

It can not only change the voice, it can also change the accent, the flow, the speed and also the pitch too.

Even though voice morphing sounds complex, it is just waveform manipulation and it can be achieved very easily by anyone looking at the current advancements in the music industry.

With the ease in availability of various voice manipulation tools, there also comes some so
