Proposal:​ We plan to do audio processing on a voice sample and perform voice morphing. The 
main aim is to perform morphing. However, we will first try to work with a self-recorded sample 
and try to remove noise if possible. We will then perform morphing on an audio sample to 
change voice for the source speaker to a designated target speaker for eg. try to make it 
metallic as in the music videos done by the electronic duo band Daft Punk (the motivation for 
the project). We went through some papers and blogs on google (mentioned underneath) and 
found that this can be done by employing a variety of techniques like pitch modification, 
changing loudness, thresholding, etc.  
 
There is no such strict work division presently. We plan to divide the paper readings among us 
and go through more blogs/papers etc. to gain more ideas. After this, each of us will work on 
some specific features to change in the audio sample.
