Dug up an old song I started several years ago and finished it up using #Voisona #Chis-A. #SynthesizerV Eleanor Forte provides harmony.
I finished up the song I used for testing #Voisona #Chis-A EN. Added a second verse, a bridge, and harmonies using #SynthesizerV #TsurumakiMaki. I really, really love the sound of Chis-A's voice.
Quick testing with #Voisona with the new #Chis-A EN voicebank (now free). I'd say it sits in between Vocaloid 6 AI and Synthesizer V.
Looks like there is high possibility they may remove Santa Rosa and San Miguel Island from Channel Islands National Park. (this was attempted in 2016).
(I had colleagues who unfortunately had to deal with a prior Sec . of the Interior in 2016 who wanted to turn the islands into private hunting reserves for the GOP and private donors).
These folks don't think there should be National Parks. They'd like to sell them off to the highest bidder and/or drill for oil/natural resources.
