I really want an honest opinion on my test cover of this song. I know there are some things i can do to make it better but I'm all out of ideas. I'm using vocaloid 5 and miku English.
I need someone's opinion. Please and thank you :)

Thank you! I'll try tuning it down a bit that should help with the warble. where there any moments that you couldn't hear or understand the lyrics?
Honestly? None that stand out. There's a few words around 0:35 that are more difficult to make out, but taking into account her accent it's not detrimental.
Ok I think this sounds better
I tried to fix the words at 0:35 but i think the main problem is that the notes start getting out of her range and the voice sample is just too deep for it be clearer -_- or at least out of my control for now. Maybe I'll find a trick that can help with that.

This tuning is AWESOME. It still feels like regular Miku English tuning, but clearer and less... AaAaAaaaAAAaAA.
Good just on getting the "warble" out. I would recommend you to see if it works well with a song that is in her optimal range (no offense, you still did wonderful with this one.) I would want to listen to any cover you pump out.

It's not the best but it's still in the early stages. This is what my tuning sounds like in her optimal range. I was working on it and it also needs some opinions.
Its really difficult to tune her with her high notes not sounding like whistles -_-

the wobble-y effect is something common when relying too much on vocaloid 5's singing skills, I'd recommend to reduce a bit the strength of the singing skill amount and skill values
I recommend for both to keep the values under 5

Ya wish that was the problem but i didn't use the skill function in this song. i think its the vibrato accent i tend to use plus the over tuning I do.
I'm trying to pinpoint the wobble
. Does it sound weird when she starts saying the notes of when she holds on the notes? it might be the vibrato I played around with it to try to get the wobble out. If its not out I don't know what else i could do to it.

It sounds more legato maybe staccato, but it's not bad at all. Personally, I would put a small amount of vibrato at the end, something to make it warble at the end of longer notes just a little, unless staccato is what you are going for. If you are going for more realism, a bit of vibrato at the end is good IMO because almost all humans have that pitch warble if we hold onto a note for a while.I'm trying to pinpoint the wobble
Still, wonderful job!
I will be adding a moderate amount of vibrato. I can't seem to find a good middle ground she either has too much vibrato or i find she sounds flat.The style I always try to go for is to make her sound as human human as possible. I try to tune in a way that gives her some natural 'human errors'. But its one thing for that to be my intention and another for that to be what she sounds like. I hope I'm making sense. Its hard to make something without outside help. Thank you for you help and descriptions its really encouraging ^-^
(ITS OFF KEY I WILL FIX IT ASAP)
So I need help again. This a work in progress and after listening to it again i can hear a few things that need changing but I also want to know you guys' opinion
First off i gotta fix the squeaks she does on high notes throughout the song thats for sure. (I just noticed how bad they are when I did listen to it without head phones
) but thats fine cause I think i put them there. I might even change singers cause Miku's voice is not soft enough for this song
Anyone have any ideas?

IT'S OFF KEY VERY SLIGHTLY AND ITS REALLY DRIVING ME CRAZY! Say So is at D major, I feel like you put it one key too high. OK, I'm not too sure if it's off key or not now that I have listened to it a bit more... Have you tried putting her at a lower octave? I think if you put her voice at just -1 octave it would do wonders.

Oh MY GOD!!! I am I tone deaf? No wonder it sounded a little off.. The Midi file I used have both the harmonics and the main melody.I was using the wrong melody. I'm not that familiar with this song so i just assumedIy was tuning it badly but it was my fault not MIKUs Thank you for telling me. As soon as i fixed the key it also fixed the octave. I kind of want to keep the original just laugh about it here.

@BlueJ I think this is better. I think it's in the right key this time. I decided to make it a duet with MEIKO because I wasn't satisfied with how it sounded with MIKU alone. This is the first time I mix with 2 different voices so its possible that some parts are not at the same volumes or the mixing is just off. ya'll can point it out if you notice something.

And this is where the VB fails you in being... uh what's the word@BlueJ I think this is better. I think it's in the right key this time.
It's like in a picture where it's slightly blurry so you know what the object is but at the same time it would be better for it to be sharper... you know what I mean? That's what the VB is doing, and I'm pretty sure it isn't your fault, and I'm not sure how you could fix it, but yeah otherwise it sound UwU gud
