Don't think this is possible.. Even if it is technically so.. Remember the feelings, tone, & strength of voice, these can't be simply replicated by any machine..
Imagine all the people living life in peace
Not possible, eh? Then let me frighten you some more! A Woo Ha Ha!!

Basically, there is a piece of software that lets a person sing into a microphone and then it's analysed and converted into pitch information. This is then applied to the mapped voice (say it was a freddie version) and it will use the performance by yourself and sing with Fred's voice and your performance.

Peace,
Adam.

P.S. Heck, there's a rackmount unit called the tc helicon, that I'm sure I've mentioned here before, that will alter the characteristics of your voice. This can make you a man sound like a girl (very well - not a cheap effect) or like a young teenage boy. Or add Growl to your voice, make it seem like you're a smoker, etc. It's very possible!
Wow. This is wild. Yet another thing I had considered as a premise for a fictional short story, and here you all are talking about it...

Even GarageBand's pitch-shifter beats what I used to use.
I recorded myself talking last night in an effort to sound like a woman for a movie I'm making. It didn't work, but I sounded *just* like myself when I was 13. It was fucking spooky, I couldn't distinguish between the pitched recording and actual speech from all those years ago. It did the same thing to my now-pubertied nephew.

So if a cheap-shit filter from Apple can turn back years on my voice I'm *sure* they could make something that'd at least do something Nifty with Freddie's voice. Let's not debate on how convincing it'd be until someone actually tries it. :P
