## What it is
Lyrebird is a simple and powerful voice changer application for Linux, built with Python and GTK. It provides built-in male and female voice effects, custom presets, manual pitch adjustment, and a virtual microphone input device through a clean GUI.

## Use cases
- change my voice to sound male or female on linux
- voice changer for discord or calls on linux
- create custom voice presets with pitch shifting
- set up a virtual microphone with modified voice
- real-time voice modulation with a simple gui

## When to choose
- you are on Linux and need a lightweight GUI voice changer
- you want built-in male/female voice presets and custom pitch control
- you need a virtual microphone device for apps like Discord

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained software (project archived December 2023)
- you cannot tolerate a few seconds of audio latency
- you are on Windows or macOS (Linux only)
- you need advanced real-time audio effects (consider Easy Effects instead)
