  There are a bunch of fun examples on Twitter of things people are doing with Chimera:

  There was a post to a tweet about this but I also found there's a GitHub repo for the software and this link to it running!

  I guess this is like a modern version of pink trombone - https://dood.al/pinktrombone/

  Also is the name a Teto reference?

    Yes, this reminds me exactly of pink trombone. Thanks for posting the link, I'll re-add it to my bookmarks.

  This is weird and fun. Brings me back to one undergraduate class where we used the IPA a lot

  That was very intriguing, I was able to tune the false vocal folds and adopt the proper anatomical positions and it did output a proper Khoomei overtone. I wasn't able to find the Kargyraa range, but I managed a decent Sygyt.

  Damned impressive setup.

  Is it not supposed to work on phone? All I hear is noise and engine keeps loading beyond 100%

  I could see this being very useful in a number of applications.

  Being trans, of course voice affirmation training.

  Then singing comes to mind, followed by language learning.

  A solid visual demo like this would help give people more than "okay now more like the a in aunt"
