  • File under “Covers that have under 1k views that deserve way, way, WAY more.” This might be my favorite Gumi English cover now.

    Ah, I’m really happy! I’ve come to realize that I’ve fallen in love with SynthV again. I’ve rediscovered a passion for working in it and I’m genuinely interested in expanding my arsenal of vocals. It’s such a good feeling.

    The, uh, the fandom still sucks (and I’m talking about the “SYNTHV IS SUPERIOR ALL ELSE SUCKS REALISM IS THE ONLY FACTOR OF A GOOD SYNTH AND I REFUSE TO FAMILIARIZE MYSELF WITH ANYTHING ELSE”-adjacent fandom, not people who authentically love SynthV in general), but separating the two has become so much easier. I won’t let a toxic vocal minority taint my enjoyment any longer!
    Are there, by any chance, any masculine SynthV vocals with Lite versions? I neeeeeed more mid-range masc vocals and having renders done just... doesn't do it for me, not like working with a vocal hands-on.
    Ah, I miss Haiyi. I miss the days Quadimension was new and promising, ATDan hadn't outed himself as a creep and all of Haiyi's official fan art wasn't just her in increasingly skimpy outfits and suggestive poses, and I felt pure, unrestrained passion for one vocal. Everything felt a lot simpler then.

    Hhhhhhhh sad peach.
    This is Day 2 of fulfilling a long-time dream: gathering as many international dubs of the KFP series as possible. The goal's to eventually distribute them on some of the more accessible movie platforms! But for now, I feel like a dragon with an ever-growing hoard, and it's a very, very nice feeling.

    I'm starting with 2, and so far I have the following dubs:
    • English
    • Latin American Spanish
    • German
    • French
    • Italian
    • Slovak
    • Czech
    • Polish
    • Estonian
    • Lithuanian
    • Latvian
    • Standard Mandarin
    • Taiwanese Mandarin
    • Korean
    • Russian
    • Ukranian
    • Romanian
    • Bulgarian
    • Thai
    • Vietnamese
    • Tamil
    • Tegulu
    • Georgian (well, it's downloading now, and it's obnoxiously slow...)
    So I'd say it's going well so far!

    The Georgian and Vietnamese dubs are both voiceovers rather than proper dubs; there's someone translating the lines in real time over the original English audio. There's a single woman doing all the lines in the Vietnamese dub, but the Georgian dub has both a man and a woman.

    The Georgian dub's especially fun, because the dubbers are actually trying. The woman keeps trying to give Tigress a voice deeper than her own voice can actually go, making her sound like she has a cold, and then she uses this very breathy falsetto for Viper's lines. It's honestly beautiful.

    Nabbed Castilian, Arabic, Brazilian Portuguese, and Greek as well before calling it quits for the time being! This has been a pleasantly productive night.
    Kirune cover going up at noon CT! Hoping it's slightly less of a failure than my last cover. Given the off-vocal is from 2009 and crispy as hell, I think it turned out alright! <(—.— < ) ( > —.—)>
    Do I have any use for Galaco? No. Am I considering buying her anyway just to secure a copy of her Talk before it's retired? Yes. Do I have any use for her Talk bank? Also no. Is that going to stop me?

    ...time will tell. 😅
    My cold’s finally gone, more or less! Talking doesn’t hurt nearly as bad and the only real symptom I still have is this continuous pressure in my ears, which is annoying, but manageable. But now that it’s over, I have this feeling like I’m exhausted from fighting it, so I’m still exhausted… even though I’ve spent the past ten days doing nothing but sleeping while not at work.

    Fighting off illness is hard work, I’ll grant, so maybe I should be gentle with myself and rest another few days, take it easy where I can. Or maybe I’ve wasted enough time and I need to get my shit together and get something done. Either way, I’m quite annoyed with myself.

    I have the same thing going on. Was mildly sick sometime in early to mid December, got better in a couple days, and have had an annoying pressure in my ears since. Had them looked at, and apparently it's fluid buildup from an ear infection. So I had a course of antibiotics, which stopped the pain that went along with it, but the pressure is still happening somewhat.
    Ah, yes. It would seem I have forgotten how to mix rock/metal songs without making the whole thing sound like an overcompressed mess.

    ...help. 😭
    Today is Day 4 of being sick, and I’m (heehee) sick of it. It’s not even 10 and I’m already in bed, because I’m just too dizzy and disoriented to do anything but lay down. My managers have been understanding and let me sit down at work when I need to; I in turn do my best to not sit down unless I feel overwhelmingly like I’m going to pass out otherwise. I’m enough of a burden when I’m well, I’m not gonna be an even bigger burden just because there’s constant pressure in my ears and my voice cracks more than a prepubescent boy’s when I speak, which I try to avoid when possible because talking still hurts.

    I need to clean! I need to tune! I need to write! I need to do something other than WORK AND SLEEP. Help me. 😭
    I went on a tangent about common fan portrayals of Tigress and Viper on my FB last night and people keep heart-reacting it. Why? I was sick and exhausted and going on a tangent. Am I really that profound when I’m sick? 😆

    But anyway, yeah, Tigress and Viper both have a lot of character nuances that are stripped down in fanworks and it annoys me to no end, which is part of why I’d like to get back into writing for the fandom!

    What she says: ”I’m fine”

    What she means: “In Kung Fu Panda fanworks, Tigress is often portrayed as a violent, temperamental tomboy while Viper is portrayed as demure and polite and a full-blown girly-girl. However, canon shows that Tigress is actually calm and slow to anger unless something really agitates her (such as being passed up for a position she’s been training HER ENTIRE LIFE for in favor of a fanboy who struggles to even climb the stairs), and while her fighting style is aggressive and her personality is curt, her body language is reserved and even traditionally feminine. Then there’s Viper, whose immediate response to the problem of a building full of cannons AND LIVING, BREATHING PEOPLE MANNING THEM is “We bring down the building!” with the most gleeful tone and the biggest smile on her face, and who canonically entered the world of kung fu because a giant gorilla warrior injured her father and her response was essentially “Square up, bitch.” She’s a sweetheart and a peacemaker, make no mistake, but this girl loves a good fight. There’s so much nuance to each character, but they’re often stripped down to “the tomboy and the girly-girl.” Why? In this essay I will”
    Alright, I need a good duet song. I’ve decided I’ve gotta make Kirune and Gakupo sing together. Most duets I’m familiar with would need to put them an octave lower, which would take the punch out of their voices because it’ll keep them in lower ranges. I’d love to cover GimmexGimme with them, but that’s one song I’ll never be able to do well. Any suggestions?

    You could turn jewelfish into a duet, then there is Roki and B who I want 2 B, or also Childish war
    For Christmas, I got myself Rose, Seika AI, and Gumi’s AIVoice. I’m already making good usage of all of them! That brings me to six new synths for the month of December. What a month!

    I actually have been wanting Seika since she was announced, but by the time she was released I’d become extremely disillusioned by SynthV and shortly after I went on hiatus. I finally used her last night, and… my God, why did I wait so long? She’s everything I’ve wanted and then some. Put her on high Gender, and she’s the answer to basically all of my vocalsynth prayers, at least those that weren’t already answered by Rose and Asterian. Aaaaaaaah I’m so happy~
    One day I'll feel a burning desire to cover something other than early V2-era songs. One day...
