Download
ALYS is currently available on three platforms:
- Alter/Ego, its former commercial platform
- UTAU, its original platform for its initial prototype
- OpenUTAU, providing access to its prototype and its DiffSinger version
Each of these three platforms has its own download link, which you can find below.
Alter/Ego
Alter/Ego is a singing vocal synthesis program developed by Plogue Art and Technology, Inc.. It is available free of charge from their site and is compatible with various vocal libraries. ALYS was the platform's first commercial voice bank and its first French-language voice bank.
This version of ALYS has the nickname ALYS4AE to distinguish its Alter/Ego voice banks from the others.
::: tip Information Alter/Ego is a virtual instrument created for use in music software (DAW, or Digital Audio Workstation) such as Cubase, FL Studio or Reaper. ALYS4AE is a plug-in for Alter/Ego and cannot be installed without first installing Alter/Ego. :::
The ALYS4AE source files can be found below:
Installation
To use ALYS4AE, you must first download and install Alter/Ego.
You will then need to download one of the two ALYS installers depending on your operating system.
- ALYS4AE Windows (282 Mio)
- ALYS4AE macOS (284 Mio)
::: danger ATTENTION Due to their different processor architecture, ALYS4AE is not natively compatible with the Apple M1, M2 and M3 or any future iteration of their ARM processor architecture. :::
Activation
To activate ALYS4AE, you will need to download this image which is the ALYS4AE activation key. Once this image has been downloaded, you can drag and drop it onto the Alter/Ego interface from any music software.
::: danger ATTENTION THIS IMAGE MUST NOT BE MODIFIED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Any modification renders this image useless and would destroy the data allowing the activation of ALYS. :::
UTAU
The original ALYS prototype was developed for UTAU. The set of vocal libraries developed for this platform is called ALYS4UTAU.
UTAU is shareware developed by Ameya/Ayame, originally released in March 2008 and last updated on September 5th, 2013. This platform allows anyone to create their own vocal library and run them through various singing synthesis engines.
ALYS4UTAU can be downloaded via the source page for each vocal library, of which there is a total of three:
-
ALYS-DB-001-JPN: The Japanese vocal library of ALYS4UTAU, used publicly.
-
ALYS-DB-001-FRA: The first French vocal library for ALYS4UTAU. It was never used publicly due to the poor quality of its recordings.
-
ALYS-DB-002-FRA : The second French vocal library for ALYS4UTAU, used publicly.
They can be downloaded via the Releases tab on the source page of
each voice bank. You can download either the zip archive or the tar.gz
archive. If you are on Windows, I highly recommend you to use
7-Zip to extract them (or any other compressed
format, like .7z, .rar, or .xz).
DiffSinger
ALYS for DiffSinger is developed and distributed by UtauFrance. DiffSinger can be used with OpenUTAU. ALYS’ DiffSinger vocal library can sing in French, Japanese, and English.
