Adobe's new toy allows users to edit and alter recorded speech. With this new technology, users can now alter any recorded statements. Users can even use VeCo to create an entirely new sentence using the recorded voice says The Earth Child.

VoCo initially presents users with a textbox which summarizes the spoken details of a specific recording. Users can then alter the entire clip by copying, deleting and duplicating words and fragments. What's more interesting is that VeCo allows users to create new words using the recorded voice.

Initial reports says that VoCo works by using large inputs of voice data, about 20-minutes in length. The tech then digests the sound stream, breaking it down into every distinct sound that comprises the spoken words of the recording. These tidbits are called phonemes.

With the use of the phonemes, VoCo can then recreate the voice of the speaker with a perfect register of cadence, stresses, intonation and accent. Further details are yet to be provided and confirmed by Adobe.
