This project started purely for fun.
One day, after listening to a lot of AI covers online, I realized that although there were plenty of them, very few featured songs I actually liked. I also noticed that almost nobody had made covers with Volibear. Even the occasional ones I could find covered only a handful of songs. So I started wondering: could I train a model myself?
Might as well do it.
As it turned out, ideas that begin as “something to mess around with for an afternoon” have a remarkably consistent habit of swallowing the entire following week.
Why I Chose RVC
There was no grand technical decision behind it. I searched around, eventually settled on RVC, and had very practical reasons for doing so: plenty of documentation, plenty of existing tools, mature training and inference workflows, and the ability to run it all on a single GPU. For someone who just wanted to hear a result as soon as possible, it was the best option available.
