    It happens sometimes to me (I only use PC to access this site), I think it might be related to the page finishing loading or something.

    yes it happened to me on PC as well, i never use the site on mobile. i had a feeling it had something to do with loading or somethin
    you know its a good morning when u wake up to various new flower songs. absolutely in love w the music video for 柊キライ's new song
    theres also a new FLG4 song coming out tomorrow at 3AM!
    thinking about v4 and v5, i am so glad the rendering is faster in v5 now, bc honestly how slow rendering was every time i made one small change was so awful, it was the one thing making me not use v5.... it can still be slow from time to time, but since they put out that update to improve it i definitely am thankful and use v5 way more since then.

    i used to do like, all possible editting in v4 and then render out in v5 for one or two additions v5 had! but now i can do most editting in v5. i do like editing parameters in v4 more tho because of the tools, was never a fan of the node/points in v5, probably the only thing (to clarify i like the idea of the points and how to use them, but it would be nice to switch between that and the very smooth lines/no points as an option easily)

    before the update I just cut the track into sections and joined them when necessary:Oc

    i mean i did that too but, i disliked managing tracks being cut into pieces lol. mostly when some melodies can be so long, having to click into ever single part i want to edit, and making changes i have to then make sure are the same on every track (at least very early on, i had issues with custom singer presets saving a lot but again, fixed issue).... yeah not convenient. (and some glitches that have existed in v5 when notes are at the end of a part? yeah not fun either- luckily those are mostly gone)

    i like v5 but on launch there were issue that made me not care for it as my main thing. its better now.
    already thinking about a flower anniversary cover bc i feel like i will 100% forget to work on anything this year bc i just have not been focused on making covers tbh. truthfully idk if i really wanna make a cover rn but id like to have something for her bday...
    was thinking about sharing some unfinished songs in my original song thread... theyre not WIPs because i will never finish them and i wanna work on new music again. but i also like what i never plan to finish and would like to share it in some form tbh...
    whoa, just went to peek into my original song folder and realized i had some lyrics and midi from a song i attempted in 2017??? so like, probably first or second music attempt. i actually had full lyrics for it.

    its uh, not good lol. only had a lyric melody and that was it. and it was very poorly timed.... fun to see after so long since i forgot tho idk if ill touch it, definitely not something i wanna work with lol
    leaving my pc on to move my music folder because i was too tired to stay up an hour was a mistake as my room was SO hot last night.... i kept waking up but was still too tired to get up and shut down my pc in the middle of the night, after it was obviously done transferring lol. i still feel tired but also...not tired
    decided to move my vocaloid/music folder to my secondary drive just for the sake of knowing its quite big now and um
    yeah its. quite big huh
    Krin
    Krin
    holy that's massive!!!! is that just vocaloid alone or other synths too?

    and i thought my utau folder was big from hoarding voicebanks :clara_ani_lili:

    @Krin it does not include my UTAU voice folder (or my WIP banks), which is only 47gb in comparison (i dont use utau much but i do save zips for many banks)- but it includes.... install files for all the voicebanks/engines ive ever owned (vocaloid, synth v, etc), all of my covers dating back to 2016, and all of my original songs. which yeah does sound pretty... small in general. but i basically keep *every* vsq/vpr/ust i ever download just in case, since that stuff can get deleted over time! would rather have a huge archive of stuff tbh, mostly because i do have the space for it... even this being 300gb out of a 4tb, it kinda means nothing overall!

    @morrysillusion wow that's impressive that you've kept all your old projects! and yeah I feel you on keeping all those usts/vsqs etc, recently its like so many important downloads have been taken down!!! Archiving seems like a good thing to do because of all that. Actually a few months ago I bought a small 1 TB external hard drive for the sole purpose of holding voicebanks, plugins, resamplers, basically one massive haven for anything UTAU related. I've been working on that again recently especially after seeing one of my fav voicebanks get discontinued out of nowhere... very glad I downloaded as many voicebanks of her as I could but it goes to show how important archiving is.
    ive never shipped out packages to people in my life lol, so of course im frantically checking the tracking numbers and posts for people i sent out these physicals to.... seems theyve almost all arrived but waiting to make sure fukase made it. definitely dont want him getting lost in the mail...

    God, I feel that! When I shipped out IA I was obsessively checking her tracking to make sure she arrived safe and sound, and as soon as she was marked as delivered I messaged her buyer to verify she'd made it and was in agreeable condition.

    I got a message back two weeks later that said "Yea, thx". I still think about that sometimes.

    YEAH exactly, like one person actually messaged me when they got it, but two others i only noticed because i checked their social medias. and the last one im waiting to see from is fukase and the person didnt seem to post much at all, so i hope they tell me or respond when i ask lol. would feel awful if it got lost so im just...tensely waiting
    you know i really dont hear a lotta uses of Amy but i really do like her voice. i mean she gives me very strong Lola vibes tbh (Chris doesnt give me Leon vibes at all tho) but there is something...something about her pronunciation that is just a little weird to me and i dont know how to describe whats wrong lol. i think chris and amy both has very slight, hard to describe issues, that if they didnt exist theyd be very perfect banks. their tones are break, but theres something about how they were recorded that just doesnt sound right...
    ive been getting into 3D modelling recently and just finished my first ever model (textured, rigged, etc!) been trying to get ideas of what to tackle next to keep practicing and realized i can....make my own v flower model now. ages ago i tried being into MMD and edited some MMD models to make my own flowers. but now i have to power to make it just how i want....
    of course being able to get rid of some vocaloids i dont use now is making me think "oh you know i liked [loid] a lot maybe i should buy it now..." like goddammit, the cycle never ends

    every so often i hear a decent original song using Oliver and like, i think his tone is great and i love it and it makes me wanna use him for originals bc theres really no engloid with that voice. but i also dont wanna be another Disturbing Oliver Original Song Maker so i think thats why i dont want to use him lol

    I don't really hear English voicesynth songs very often, but it's totally okay if you don't want to make songs with certain common theme. Variety is good nonetheless!

    Honestly, if that‘s the type of song you‘d want to write, I say go for it! The most important part is to have fun and enjoy the final product!

    thank you guys for the positive encouragement. i guess as my status has a little personal experience i did not describe lol so its a bit too vague on why ive strayed from using oliver.

    i wrote a pretty personal song years ago using Oliver and while i liked it, the sort of comments i got felt.... insensitive to the actual topic i was venting and i was feeling like it was just 'another creepy oliver song for oliver fans to flock to' and not 'a very personal topic to bring awareness'. the issue is mainly feeling like having the vocaloid name "oliver" slapped on it will only lead to those kinds of fans.... this is, whollly just one expirience that has since made me feel that way. but ive considered trying to work past this by using him again, maybe trying to combat some of the specific attention of oliver fans by just not...naming the vocaloid in the song, perhaps.

    of course theres a whole other topic to be had about venting through art and the way people interpret it. in the sense that i can in no way control it. but i was mostly put off by (at the time) swarming oliver fans only wanting weird oliver songs due to other popular artists doing the same. i didnt want my songs to be grouped with that i think
    i remember when synth v initially got announced and i wasnt super into the engine noise (it wasnt worse than cevio though). i never liked moresampler because i didnt like how much it made voices "fuzzy" even if it worked well with some. but hey, theres been some major improvements in synth v since.... some banks sound better than others tbh, but it doesnt sound real good now. so i question why cevio still sounds Like That

    Moresampler is personally my go-to resampler but I def agree on SV, I like it like most ppl do but I wish it was more consistent with it's results, the way SV vbs react and how fuzzy they get is all over the place and I suspects the samples aren't the only cauze. The G1 web editor Saki is actually clearer than the current version of her. Again I like SV but I kinda feel like the resampler works better in utau.

    I'm quite certain that SynthV has aliasing issues, which can get better or worse depending upon internal sample rate and export sample rate settings. But such things shouldn't matter if proper anti-aliasing measures were implemented. Regardless, that wouldn't fix the overall noise issue, but it would get rid of some of the unpleasant tones, especially at higher pitches.

    there is sooo much i could go on and on about with the way maghni-ai is looking rn so i wont keep adding to the main thread lol.... in the end i would love to see it succeed in some form, even if it has like 10% of the expected features tbh lol. i wouldnt wish for failure but i cant say i expect much from its current development
    god this might be unpopular but as much as i love the art and general sound of kairiki bear's music i just...barely listen to him anymore bc his style is just so same-y. kinda makes me sad bc i have no interest in the songs :/ theyre definitely good but they all just sound way too similar for me to want to listen to new ones....

    Literally thought the same thing after hearing their newest song. It's like, the same songs just a different melody. They're not terrible but tbh I kinda got sick of them bcos of the fact they're all the same. There are only two songs I can say I really like / are memorable imo
    Kafu is such a conflict because every time i hear an original song with her im like "yeah, this sounds good" because for the most part the voicebank does sound good, but its that quality and tone that make me suffer. its like every time i am almost tempted to consider buying her because its *almost* what i want.... but the quality issues and the chipmunk voice issues are enough that its just not worth supporting and dropping $200 on. i dont use vocaloid things enough to warrant it either, so ill sit from afar and hope users who get her consider making her sound deeper/more in line with what she couldve been....
