The first major update for Antares’ newest plug-in has just arrived, kitting the processor out with some new features which the company say push the creative boundaries of AI vocal transformation. Metamorph V1.1 introduces the ability to import third-party RVC (Retrieval-based Voice Conversion) models, opening up a whole host of new creative possibilities while maintaining the security and privacy offered by the softwares offline local processing.
What’s New?
- Third-Party RVC Model Import: Expand your sonic palette beyond Metamorph's premium collection. Import custom-trained models or community creations directly into the plug-in. Built with a security-first approach that protects your computer and privacy.
- Vocal Range Matching: Not every voice fits every model out of the box. Vocal Range Matching automatically analyses the user's vocal input and optimises it to sit naturally within the chosen voice model's range, delivering smoother, more authentic transformations with fewer artefacts.
- Drag & Drop Export: From plug-in to timeline in seconds. Drag processed vocals directly from Metamorph onto your DAW timeline — no exporting, no file management, no extra steps. Creative momentum stays unbroken.
- Enhanced Mac Accessibility: Full Tahoe support and VoiceOver accessibility ensure Metamorph works seamlessly for all Mac users.
Ethical AI Statement
Here’s what the company have to say about the use of AI across their product range:
“As a proud supporter of The Principles for Music Creation with AI, Auto Tune remains committed to responsible AI development. While V1.1 enables third-party model import, all 18 voices included with Metamorph continue to be ethically sourced with proper authorisation and compensation. This approach reflects Auto Tune's belief that transparency and respect for artists' rights are essential to responsible AI use.”
