Saludos, alguno de los colegas a experimentado cantai app en español, o sabe si existe?
Well, it can sing in Spanish, so I assume you can read the instructions in that language also. (I’m sure if I’m mistaken someone will correct me.)
Do you mean audio samples?
I don’t speak Spanish, so I can’t judge the pronunciation.
(Here, S: Ottetto:Kim, A: Ottetto:Leah, T: Ottetto:Eric, and B: Ottetto:Patrick are singing, with no other settings; my computer is set to German, but the Cantai windows are in English)
Are Latin instructions available too?
I doubt that Latin instructions are available, since it’s considered a ‘dead’ language. I assume that the reason Cantai can sing in Latin is because there so many sacred texts in that language that composers like to set to music.
It’s my understanding that Cantai can presently sing only in English, Spanish, and Latin, and that other languages are ‘in the works.’ Check their website and get on their mailing list to stay up to date on developments.
Yes, i know…
three months ago, it was expected that Italian and French would be released quite quickly with German to follow late summer/early Autumn. This timescale has, however been put back somewhat by the prioritisation of Intel Mac which is fair enough. But we shouldn’t have too long to wait with luck! Any more than that, I don’t know at present.
There are no real instructions for any of the three languages that Cantai currently “sings.” The only thing to really remember is to be sure the desired language is selected on at least one instance. After selected on one instance, it propagates to the remaining instances.
Documentation is sketchy but Cantai’s use is fairly straightforward. I, like others, started out with Cantai overthinking what I needed to do to make its integration successful. Since it still is really a beta product (quite frequent updates based on user experience), it really hasn’t matured to an end state just yet. I suspect that we will not see that for at least a year or so. Nevertheless, its latest version is working reasonably well.
I am native Spanish speaker. Some d’s and some t’s are a little weird pronounced. For example
“Nada te turbe” sounds as
“Nata tche tchurbe”
that d in “nada” sounds as English or German speakers when they say “nada”
Some singers (mainly in romantic music) tend to pronounce the t’s as they were English speakers speaking Spanish: “te tengo que olvidar” —> “tche tchengo que olvidar” but I find it awful.
