Metallic Character VoiceNet dimension guide
Spectral & Timbralcode vn_METLslot 66
This dimension measures the presence of clanging / ringing inharmonic frequencies. Below: the merge-scaling dose-response for the __high and __low LoRA (laion/moss-voicenet-dimension-loras) at 25/50/75/100/125%, the measured target value at each dose, the top-3 ± correlated EmoNet emotions and VoiceNet dimensions, three audio samples per dose, and a grounded prompting tip. Costs are shifts vs. the 24-sample neutral baseline in genuineness, vocal-burst blend and speech quality.
Metallic Character controls the presence of clanging / ringing inharmonic frequencies. The __high LoRA shifts it +0.43 at 100% (worst cost: burst-blend -0.44); the __low LoRA shifts it -0.04 at 75% (worst cost: genuineness -0.03). The __high direction is the stronger, more reliable knob here.

Merging Metallic Character __high raises the dimension: at the recommended 100% dose the measured Metallic Character score moves from a 0.05 baseline to 0.49 (a +0.43 shift). The dose-response is clean and monotonic — each step pushes the dimension further. That reach is a steep cost — the biggest hit is to burst-blend (-0.44); across the board genuineness -0.10, burst-blend -0.44, speech quality -0.20. Emotionally it reads as Triumph (r 0.77), Pride (0.64) and Malevolence/Malice (0.61), and it moves away from Contentment, Affection and Relief. On other voice dimensions it co-moves most with Attack (0.97), Arousal (0.97) and Stance (0.97), while pulling down Vulnerability, Whisper-Talk Style and Warmth. Practical call: merge __high at 75–100%; expect Triumph and Attack to rise and burst-blend to fall. If you don’t want Triumph bleeding in, offset it with a prompt cue toward Contentment to keep the metallic character shift without the side-effect.

Merging Metallic Character __low damps the dimension: at the recommended 75% dose the measured Metallic Character score moves from a 0.05 baseline to 0.02 (a -0.04 shift). The dose-response is monotonic but it saturates early, so higher doses add little. That reach is nearly free — the biggest hit is to genuineness (-0.03); across the board genuineness -0.03, burst-blend +0.01, speech quality +0.10. Emotionally it reads as Jealousy & Envy (r 0.48), Teasing (0.36) and Pride (0.35), and it moves away from Contentment, Disgust and Contemplation. On other voice dimensions it co-moves most with Tension (0.85), Attack (0.84) and Stance (0.82), while pulling down Register, Warmth and Teacher/Didactic Style. Practical call: merge __low at 50–100%; expect Jealousy & Envy and Tension to rise and genuineness to fall. If you don’t want Jealousy & Envy bleeding in, offset it with a prompt cue toward Contentment to keep the metallic character shift without the side-effect.
