Edit Consonants And Phonemes

All syllables are made of phonemes. Each of them contains 1 vowel and 0 or more consonants. This means, a note has 1 vowel and 0 or more consonants.

Pre/post consonants

Consonants are darker box at both side of a note.

• A pre consonant is positioned before the note, just outside the left boundary of the note.
• A post consonant is positioned at the end of the note, but within the right boundary of the note.

The duration of consonant pronunciation is often an important factor influencing accents.

• AI will generate the duration for each consonant based on the accent of AI voice being used on track.
• To adjust the duration of a consonant, just simply drag on its left boundary.

The durations of consonants will be fixed once they have been generated by AI, unless you change them manually or change the lyrics. For example, you have a MIDI clip with lyrics on notes, and you let AI generate the vocal by starting the playback. At this moment, the durations of consonants are fixed and you can see the darker boxes around notes. These durations come from the accent of the current AI voice on the track, if you want to change the AI voice, you can clear all the durations of consonants by selecting all notes and click “Clear all consonants” from the right-click menu.

Voiceless consonants

Consonants like “s, t, k, p, b, etc.” are voiceless consonants. They produce sound through the airflow in mouth rather than through the vocal cords, so usually they don’t have pitch.
