View PDFHTML (experimental)Abstract:Singing voice conversion aims to transform a source singing voice into that of a target singer while preserving the original lyrics, melody, and various vocal techniques. In this paper, we propose a high-fidelity singing voice conversion system. Our system builds upon the SVCC T02 framework and consists of three key components: a feature extractor, a voice converter, and a post-processor. The feature extractor utilizes the ContentVec and Whisper models to derive F0 contours and extract speaker-independent linguistic features from the input singing voice. The voice converter then integrates the extracted timbre, F0, and linguistic content to synthesize the target speaker's waveform. The post-processor augments high-frequency information directly from the source through simple and effective signal processing to enhance audio quality. Due to the lack of a standardized professional dataset for evaluating expressive singing conversion systems, we have created and made publicly available a specialized test set. Comparative evaluations demonstrate that our system achieves a remarkably high level of naturalness, and further analysis confirms the efficacy of our proposed system design.
