Sparrow-2
A turn-taking model that knows when a voice agent should speak
Emerged finds new products worth a look, daily — what’s new today
Streamers and players get a free, account-free alternative to paid voice changers, with AI voices that run on the CPU rather than a cloud service.
Voxel routes your microphone through effects and AI voices into a virtual microphone, so Discord, Telegram or a game hears the changed voice. It offers 125 voices in nine groups, a hear-yourself toggle and a level meter. AI voices run locally on the CPU through ONNX Runtime; effects include formant-preserving pitch shift, a vocoder and reverb. Windows installs without admin rights, though the installer is unsigned; Apple Silicon Macs are in beta. MIT, no ads or account.
