Di-O-Matic, a leading developer of character animation software, is proud to unleash today the Voice-O-Matic addon to the Softimage|XSI community.
The most renowned CG characters including Batman, Spider-man, Superman and many more are relying on Voice-O-Matic to chat with nothing less than the world. After six years of outstanding reviews, the award winning lip synchronization tool initially only available for Autodesk 3ds max marked today its release for Softimage|XSI.

Voice-O-Matic is a user friendly and powerful addon that automates the process of lip synchronization for your animated CG characters. Simply feed an audio file to Voice-O-Matic, and it will automatically generate lip synch for your characters.

Di-O-Matic has worked in close collaboration with Softimage to adapt Voice-O-Matic to XSI’s unique workflow. Laurent M. Abecassis, founder and president of Di-O-Matic explains: “With Voice-O-Matic (XSI Edition) we did not simply transferred our technology to Softimage XSI, we have pushed it further to have a tight integration within XSI and to also offer the best automated lip synchronization tool to the XSI community.”

Voice-O-Matic might become your best lip-sync companion, whether you decide to leave your lip-sync as is or if you want to tweak it. The tool already has established its efficiency in leading video games, feature films, television and commercials. To open up to the world community, Voice-O-Matic is working with any type of character setup and also in any language from English to Japanese, including French, Spanish, and many others.

Bill Roberts, Director of Product Management at Softimage concludes “At Softimage, we always focus on high end character animations this is why we are thrilled about the additional capabilities that Voice-O-Matic is now offering to our users.”
