Strong Alliance! Universal Music Joins Forces with AI Music Startup SoundLabs to Create Custom Voice Cloning Models for Artists

Universal Music Group (UMG) and AI music technology company SoundLabs have joined forces to bring a revolutionary technology to singers and artists—the ability to create personalized voice cloning models. This isn't science fiction; it's reality!

Through SoundLabs' MicDrop feature, artists can provide data to generate their own voice models and have complete control over the use of these models. This means, your voice, your say!

MicDrop's voice-to-instrument feature allows keyboards to instantly mimic guitar or drum sounds, providing limitless flexibility and creative space for music creation. Moreover, MicDrop also has language translation capabilities, helping artists overcome language barriers and making music borderless.

Key Highlights:

Voice Model Creation: Artists can create personalized voice models based on their own data, with full creation and control rights, ensuring clear ownership and usage rights.

Voice-to-Instrument Feature: MicDrop can convert voices into sounds of different instruments, such as simulating guitar or drum sounds on a keyboard, offering more flexibility and creative space for music creation.

Language Translation Feature: MicDrop also offers language translation capabilities, helping artists translate songs into different languages, breaking through language barriers and allowing them to release music globally, expanding their audience.

Protecting Artist Rights: Voice models in MicDrop are not publicly available, ensuring that artists' virtual avatars are not misused. Artists have complete control over the ownership and usage rights of their models, preventing unauthorized use.
