Cantai isn’t just another sound library—it’s a breakthrough in vocal synthesis. Powered by advanced machine learning and fully integrated into MuseScore Studio, Cantai not only captures the subtlety of real human singing, from delicate dynamics to expressive phrasing, but also sings your lyrics with clarity and emotion. Whether you’re writing an intimate solo aria, a soaring choral passage, or a dramatic operatic scene, Cantai delivers voices that sound authentic, expressive, and true to your score. Cantai is available through subscription and includes Solo Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass voices, as well as choir ensembles. Rendering is managed intelligently to ensure optimal performance and system availability. Usage Note: Local rendering used when CPU is fast enough (unlimited). Otherwise, Cantai includes up to 180 minutes of online rendering time per week, which resets every Monday. Because Cantai renders automatically as you write, your minutes can be used up quickly. Previously rendered sections will still play back even after the limit is reached. To conserve minutes, switch to manual rendering using the steps here: https://handbook.musescore.org/sound-and-playback/musesounds/online-sounds

"Please Check your connection" Be prepared to see this 90% of the time and be frustrated.

The sound can be excellent. Not perfect, not complete, but really remarkable. Love it when it works. Too bad that I do not have local generation with my brand-new AMD PC and have to rely on often slow-ish, sometimes non-functional online generation, with a quota hanging over my head like a sword of Damocles. Generally speaking, the MuseHub/MuseScore combination is not very stable when it comes to MuseSounds, I "lose" them temporarly pretty often, installing them was a matter of persistance.

Love this software. As a church composer for my Samoan and English Methodist Parish, this software is helping me hear my hymns in English before I teach it. However, when it comes to the Samoan language, there is none. Is the Samoan language coming soon? Will really appreciate it if the Samoan language comes sooner.

The new voices are much better, and that's what really counts with this product. But once again MuseScore users get the short straw with commercial decisions. What is the justification for lack of local rendering with the monthly subscription? (And for not making that perfectly clear on the MuseHub page? And for there being no way of checking how much time you have used up out of your weekly allowance? And for neither MuseScore nor Cantai support having a clue about this, each saying to check with the other party?) Maybe there is a history of bad blood between the different people involved, but my money seems to mean less to all concerned than a Dorico or Sibelius user's. However, congratulations on the new voices.

There are too many times when the user is expected to fix a loss of service (voices not working) on Cantai's end.

About a couple of years ago, this program started being developed. It kept announcing that it was a program for opera singing. This year, when I finally decided to try it, it was still far from operatic in any way. I hated it, because even the choir voices were juvenile and amateurish and do portamenti. The pronunciation of Latin, which is evidently done by singers from the USA, is horrible. This is a new program. It's trying to sing correctly, in different languages, including all dynamics, articulations, etc. That is a massive achievement. They keep on working with it. Above all, they deserve to be given a chance, because the developers are listening to the community and constantly trying to improve.

At first, I was impressed by the advert that said it is an Intelligent singing synthesiser,..but in fact ,.it has been nothing but disappointing,..Cantai singers can't even pronounce simple English words accurately,and some words sung are not even in my score, it can't even sing the syncopated notes with lyrics i wrote correctly,what is worst, when I submitted my complains,with my scores & MP3s to Musehub support ,one Anatashia says it is not their responsibilities and that I have to contact Cantai directly,if so,what is the customer support for Cantai on Musehub for ? Thankfully I didn't commit myself to buy the long term plan and unless I see improvements, there's no way I will invest for long term in Cantai.

I would give this program currently 2.5 stars. I am a choir director working with a small church choir. This sound allows me to make practice tracks for my choir which is a huge plus. However - sustained notes are consistantly off pitch. And often times the voices add random ordaments in the playback. I have the tenor line decentding chromatically (Think barbershop style). It is supposed to be from C-B-Bb, and it goes C-B-(C-B)-Bb, think the parenthisees as two grace notes. I was also kind of disappointed that the choir sounds are very ‘Pop’ instead of classical. Don’t get me wrong - I could use the pop sound for certain songs, but in most of my compositions I would prefer to have a more classical choir.

You cannot open the plugin to change language settings in Musescore, so everything is pronounced in English. I contacted technical support and received an automated response; no human interaction was possible.

Partner Response: Hi there, please see here for details on how to customize the language settings: https://handbook.musescore.org/customization/language You can also find more details on how to use Cantai within MuseScore Studio here: https://cantai.app/faq If you continue to have issues, please feel free to reach back out to customer support and we'll do our best to assist.
