    Honestly, this is one of the smoothest uses of her I've heard so far. You're doing great! And saaaaaame; if you ever need any help, don't hesitate to as me or Patuk! (For the first few days, every second text I sent her was "Hey! How do you do this? What's this do? What effects would sound best here?")

    @peaches2217 Okay that's good because I can't even tell you how long I spent googling how to inset breaths lolol. The beginner tutorial videos Yamaha made were okay but after watching them I was even more lost!!?! I think I just gotta get used to the program and things will get easier the more. Right off the bat though tuning feels a lot more smoother than V4 so the upgrade was definitely worth it!!

    @patuk TYSM!!!! I'm glad this sounds a lot better :ia_ani_lili:

    I got V5!!!! :ia_ani_lili: (just the standard version)

    I installed it late last night and had to go to school today so i haven't had time to use it until now, i'm sosososso excited to try out the pitchbend function and the singing styles!!!

    I can't get over how Luka V2 sounds so much better than V4x like how does that even work???? I still like her V4x but lately the tone of her V2 sounds a lot more nicer to me, almost deeper kind of.

    Also dumb question, but V2 vocaloids can still be used in the V4 editor right, or does that not work anymore?

    I wouldn't be surprised if Luka NT (whenever Crypton gets round to making it) had V2's tone, like how they're trying to bring Miku V2's tone back with NT.

    @TheStarPalace Oh that's good that V2s can still be imported, I only have her V4x but now I want both. I'm thinking of buying a Vocaloid for xmas (maybe along with V5) so now it's a battle between Flower, Lily and Luka 🥰

    @Blue Of Mind I'm also excited to see what Luka NT sounds but I'm a little worried because I wasn't that fond of the way Miku sounded in hers (imo). Regardless I'm mostly just excited to see her new design!!!

    @Krin ah no need to feel bad! It's just really complicated matter and I would most likely feel the same if this happened to my fav vbs! It's definitely easier to say this because I've personally never been a Ritsu fan. Still! Take it easy and let yourself to think this through! Just know that no grudges are being held and that you're doing great :akasakiminato_lili:


    Hm, I can see where you're coming from but I can't agree with the points you've made.

    "We do not know Canon's personal stance on Trump's policies other then that he preferred Trump over Biden."

    And I would argue that tells us more than enough about her beliefs, enough to make us avoid her if we choose to.

    "There are LGBT that have voted for Trump in the previous election(and most likely the following one) as well, so to act as if none vote for him and support him does not sit right in me, especially to speak on their behalf since a group of people never share the exact same values or opinions"

    No one has implied that, we were merely speaking about our own feelings, only speaking for ourselves and the group you're speaking of is extremely small minority possibly suffering from internalized homophobia. The truth is that overwhelming majority of the LGBT community is anti Trump as he's damaging to our very existence.

    "VBs should always be separated from their VP"

    That's something I have to strongly disagree with. To say it's complicated matter whether and when to separate them, that's stance I agree with but to say to never do so can be damaging. Prime example being Crecia Selestewa, that utaus been active part of the abuse her vp has cauzed and thus she's inseparable part of it, she was extension of her vp used to abuse people. She's now been sworn off by the community because of that.

    "but that is not going to affect DDR's VBs themselves for me or the community. SeeU's VP was involved in blackmailing but SeeU is still loved by myself and the community"

    You noted how we were speaking on the behalf of the whole LGBT community but that's what you're doing now with the voice synth community. I'm not going to deny that SeeU has a niche fandom but she's seen as a black sheep of the community by a large portion of the fandom as well due to her vp's actions, there is also the whole issue with xenophobia involving her that made her one of the most controversial vbs out there, as for DDR, that's a more complicated issue that I will expand on here:

    "I feel that this Canon situation is incredibly hypocritical in that they stand by synths voiced by people who have done and said bad things and blackmailing, but a man who cannot even vote for Trump is the ultimate evil"

    The thing with DDR is that their voice providers are very involved with the community like no other voice provider out there and thus they're very easy gateway to relevancy in the western voice synth fandom so people are hesitant to call them out and due to their power in the community it's easy for them to silence the ones who attempt that, seen it with my own eyes. So the circumstances are, in my opinion, not comparable.

    And this is again another example where vps and vbs are inseparable, Dex, Daina and Ruby ( especially DD ) absolutely are used in their vp's shenanigans and what keeps their ( unjustified ) status in this fandom.

    “Pretend you didn’t see it” is fine if someone is just like, vocally against your favorite film series but not when producer advocated pedophilia (Aki) or Naziism (Steampianist). Canon supporting Trump seems minor in comparison, but knowing what Trump stands for and against, it’s perfectly reasonable to be unable to separate that from Ritsu.

    This wasn't written with malicious/hateful intend either, just explaining why I disagree

    And sorry Krin! Didn't mean to turn this into such serious debate :clara_lili:

    @patuk
    (I did not know Canon was a woman this whole time. I saw everyone refer with he so I assumed that Ritsu was voiced by a man who could do a feminine voice like Iroha. I just wanted to say that and apologize.)
    Except it does not in the slightest. It does the exact opposite. Because we do not know, we cannot condemn someone for something they are not guilty of. Innocent until proven guilty is the way to go here. If Canon starts saying LGBT are awful, then we can see why she prefers Trump, but as of yet, no proof has been given. Imagine if you were watching foreign politics that were hardly covered in your country, and you saw one politician and thought "hm, I think I like them over the other person", and then everyone attacked you and even sent death threats, and you did not know why because you cannot see what the problem is. Wouldn't that be horrible? That is exactly what people are doing to Canon. I do not know her, but I know that I will never stand by death threats or attacks on someone who is most likely innocent.
    You are fine to avoid Canon and her creation if you wish, nothing is stopping you or anyone else, but that does not mean you can condemn her for something she might not be guilty of.

    I said that because I was trying to show that there are those that are LGBT do not care about Trump's feelings towards LGBT. They are not a small minority, they are actually quite plentiful, and, I am sorry, but I am legitimately angry that you would think they have internalized homophobia or transphobia because they preferred him over Clinton or Biden. This is the exact same garbage women get for not agreeing with popular opinions("you just have internalized sexism/misogny"), the same with racial minorities("you just have internalized racism/you're an uncle tom"), and I am absolutely up to here with it. It is a disgusting thought to believe and disregards people who do not agree with the majority, or dare to have an independent thought from other people in whatever group they associate themselves with. It is speaking for someone and claiming that they are wrong because of something they are not going through, something we should not be doing for people when we are trying to let their voices be heard. We cannot silent voices we do not agree with with stupid excuses that make no sense. I would recommend never saying that again because of the connotation it has, you could get into serious trouble online saying that.
    Of course, maybe there are some who have internalized, but if we go over every "well there are X who believe in Y", this could go on for hours.
    You are not wrong that there are many that dislike him, but If he is so damaging to the very existence of LGBT, then why are all my LGBT friends, LGBT online, etc still existing and not disappeared into thin air or have been damaged like they are property? Despite his feelings, he will never be able to repeal Obama's policy on gay marriage or gender surgery/medicine/transitioning in general, it is too popular of a policy to be gotten rid of. No one will be able to unless America somehow swung into a incredibly intense right-wing phase, which I doubt will happen.

    Crecia is a terrible example to use for your argument because of what you just said, even if you agree with me. You contradicted yourself completely.
    Except I am not speaking on the community whereas you were. The majority of fans have not cared about DDR or SeeU's VPs or even know of what they did, even when presented evidence and have seen it themselves. Why? Because they separated the VP from the VB(or are just blindly defending the VP)
    If the community swore them off like Crecia, then why are covers and originals being made still(Well, I am not sure about originals with SeeU due to the language barrier, but I am sure there are some out there by users who know Korean or Japanese, or make her sing in English)? because they separated the VPs from the VBs. Avanna is still getting use despite her artist being E/mpa/th/p, the same with the Quadimension girls at ATDAN. Whether you personally like it or not, people are different and are not going to agree to the same thing, and will separate creators from creations(or in the art case, their contributors). Especially if it is a product they paid with with their hard-earned money. 100$ does not come out of thin-air.
    Just to clarify, I am speaking only about the Western fandom regarding SeeU. I have been in the fandom and interacted with it for a very long time, and I have seen nothing but love for the VB and decrying the VP's actions, not SeeU. I have never seen anyone consider her a black sheep.
    The xenophobia cannot apply when we are speaking about the western fandom(Unless there is a small sect of xenophobes in the western fandom, but as I said, I have been here for a while and have not seen any xenophobia towards her.) However I did not make it very clear in my original post that I was speaking strictly about the western, so I apologize for the misleading post.

    You contradicted yourself completely. Canon is very relevant in the eastern community and posts frequently, maybe not with Utau and covers, but Canon is still a big figure in the community, just like DDR. You are right that people are afraid to call them out, and I agree that they silence any who does, as I have also seen it. But that does not mean we should not. If we are going to condemn Canon for something as small as watching foreign politics and not knowing every nuance about America and it's politics, then we should condemn M/sha, N/Stra/tAn/werP and E/mpa/thP for the things they have said and done, which, as I said, are far worse. I would say the same for SeeU's, but her VP seems to have left the internet completely from what I can see and has already been condemned, so there is not much more to do other then beat a dead horse.
    (To clarify, I am not defending her VP at all, but I assume that is already obvious from my posts. I am just saying there is not much more to be done with her VP.)
    To be honest, we should be doing this for western producers as well. Many of them have done terrible things, but no one has said a thing except in secret. I hated this unspoken "never say anything bad about western producers" rule ever since I joined the fandom, and it saddens me to see it still continuing. To only condemn Japanese producers, VPs, etc makes the community look a tad bit racist(I am not saying it is, I am saying it makes it look that way) because we can hide behind a language barrier, and say whatever we wish about Japanese producers, meanwhile we cannot say a thing about Western ones because they can read English and sometimes search themselves(there is a reason I am censoring their names here. I would like to say their names uncensored, but I do not want the forum to get attacked because of this talk.)

    DDR are completely able to be separated from their VPs. Regardless of how much DD(And R, M/s/a uses Ruby in covers frequently) uses theirs, at the end of the day it is a paid product that many people enjoy and are not going to throw their money away because they found out about the VPs, or they enjoy the sound and ignore the VP. While I think there are English voicebanks that can do better, DDR are capable banks, and many enjoy using them so it is understandable as to why they are popular in the fandom(though it is sad that some of the popularity comes from their VPs, but sadly nothing can be done about that)

    Canon's opinion that she might not know everything about is nowhere near comparable to SteamPianist's various acts or A/ki actively enjoying something morally wrong.(They are actually both pedophiles, Steam follows Shadman. It does not surprise me considering the content of his music. I personally thought everyone knew something was wrong with Steam because of his music, but I guess the various things being revealed earlier this year was what made everyone realize what was actually happening)
    Many films, animes, shows, etc, have been made by horrible people, you probably have a few that you like that were made by these people. Not just creators, but people who have helped with animation, or storyboarding, camera work, etc. No work is clean. People have disregarded the creator because that content did not seep into the media, and they are not going to let awful people ruin wonderful pieces of works. Canon's opinion can easily be separated from Ritsu because Canon's opinion did not seep into Ritsu because Trump being a candidate was not happening when Ritsu was created in 2008 or so. The only connection is Canon helped with Ritsu's creation, a connection that can easily be severed and you can ease your mind when you see any content of Ritsu, which you will see frequently if you are going to be in vocal synth communities.
    Also, again, Canon said she preferred him, not that she supported him. She cannot even legally support him because she is not an American citizen(Unless I missed something and she moved to America). That is even more proof that all this was was someone watching foreign politics and not knowing all the ins and out, and speaking about it. Again, I am not sure how much Japan covers foreign elections, so for all I know I could be wrong and Canon knows more about politics then even Americans that are into it. But without proof, Canon is innocent.

    Apologies for the mess, and this was not made with malicious intent either. If the topic of Ritsu and Canon upset you so much, I would really recommend not talking or indulging in it. And no, this is not me trying to get out of this talk, this is me trying to make sure no one goes through stress they can easily avoid, and that you are free to not reply if you wish. I only did because you replied and I felt bad if I did not, as if I was running away from talking or something silly like that(I get those kind of thoughts occassionally and force myself through things I know I cannot do), and looking back it was not a good idea that I did considering how tired I have been and what happened today, and how much time I need for myself nowadays to prepare for my move instead of internet debates. Edit: added a bit more and also, you can most likely see the tiredness in this, and I realized some things came off as aggressive when that was not the intention. I am very sorry.


    I personally think the Ritsu drama should be dropped altogether personally. It has been a while now, Canon apologized for bringing it up and promised never to do it again. I am not even a Ritsu fan aside from Cillia's cover and that blizzard song(I cannot remember the name of it), but It should never have escalated like it did.

    "Except it does not in the slightest. It does the exact opposite. Because we do not know, we cannot condemn someone for something they are not guilty of. Innocent until proven guilty is the way to go here. If Canon starts saying LGBT are awful, then we can see why she prefers Trump, but as of yet, no proof has been given.
    I don't need her to do that, her showing any favoritism towards a person who doesn't believe LGBT people should have rights is enough for me, even if she herself doesn't outright believe LGBT people are awful it does show lack of care towards us if she's willing to look past that for any reason. Besides it's not like showing favoritism towards Trump has nothing but bad implications, I don't think she prefers him because she finds his hairstyle cooler.

    "Imagine if you were watching foreign politics that were hardly covered in your country, and you saw one politician and thought "hm, I think I like them over the other person", "

    Canon's been more involved than that, it wasn't one time thing.

    "I do not know her, but I know that I will never stand by death threats or attacks on someone who is most likely innocent. "
    "You are fine to avoid Canon and her creation if you wish"

    And that's all I said I would do, I'm not sure why death threats were brought up when I haven't even implied I condone such thing.

    "I said that because I was trying to show that there are those that are LGBT do not care about Trump's feelings towards LGBT. They are not a small minority, they are actually quite plentiful"

    Are you yourself LGBT though? You might say that doesn't matter but both sides come from different places in this situation so I'd like to know before I continue if that's ok.

    Besides the original question was how people feel about Ritsu and both I and my girlfriend replied with our reasoning and the existence of lgbt people who support Trump doesn't negate that.

    "It is a disgusting thought to believe and disregards people who do not agree with the majority, or dare to have an independent thought from other people in whatever group they associate themselves with. It is speaking for someone and claiming that they are wrong because of something they are not going through, something we should not be doing for people when we are trying to let their voices be heard. We cannot silent voices we do not agree with with stupid excuses that make no sense. I would recommend never saying that again because of the connotation it has, you could get into serious trouble online saying that."

    I see nothing offensive with saying that people who agree with their oppressors often suffer from internalized [x]phobia. You see it with transmeds and "Im not like other girls".

    And pro-Trump voices are invalid and not worthy of being heard out no matter who they come from.

    "You are not wrong that there are many that dislike him, but If he is so damaging to the very existence of LGBT, then why are all my LGBT friends, LGBT online, etc still existing and not disappeared into thin air or have been damaged like they are property?"

    Your reality isn't everyone's reality.

    " Despite his feelings, he will never be able to repeal Obama's policy on gay marriage or gender surgery/medicine/transitioning in general, it is too popular of a policy to be gotten rid of. No one will be able to unless America somehow swung into a incredibly intense right-wing phase, which I doubt will happen."

    He's for example made it unable for trans people to go to army and everyone thought he wouldn't be able to do that. He's unpredictable and voting for him is risky.

    "Crecia is a terrible example to use for your argument because of what you just said, even if you agree with me. You contradicted yourself completely."

    Why is she a terrible example and how have I contradicted myself?

    " The majority of fans have not cared about DDR or SeeU's VPs or even know of what they did"

    DDR vps can't be big figures in the community and simultaneously have majority of the fandom not caring about them.

    "Why? Because they separated the VP from the VB(or are just blindly defending the VP)
    If the community swore them off like Crecia, then why are covers and originals being made still(Well, I am not sure about originals with SeeU due to the language barrier, but I am sure there are some out there by users who know Korean or Japanese, or make her sing in English)? because they separated the VPs from the VBs."

    The community didn't swore them off like Crecia, I never said that, I just used her as an example of vb where vp and vb can't be separated. And whether vb and vp can be separated isn't up to an individual to decide, they can decide for themselves that they'll keep using it but said usage won't magically stop adding to the damage.

    "Just to clarify, I am speaking only about the Western fandom regarding SeeU. I have been in the fandom and interacted with it for a very long time, and I have seen nothing but love for the VB and decrying the VP's actions, not SeeU. I have never seen anyone consider her a black sheep."

    I don't know how else to put it other than that you're overestimating her relevancy and popularity, even if she's more positively seen in the western fandom her popularity was definitely impacted by the controversy.

    "You contradicted yourself completely. Canon is very relevant in the eastern community and posts frequently, maybe not with Utau and covers, but Canon is still a big figure in the community, just like DDR."

    Yes but her behavior and interactions are not the same as DDR's, she didn't become relevant and keep her status with scare tactics.

    "But that does not mean we should not. If we are going to condemn Canon for something as small as watching foreign politics and not knowing every nuance about America and it's politics, then we should condemn M/sha, N/Stra/tAn/werP and E/mpa/thP for the things they have said and done, which, as I said, are far worse."

    I have been openly vocal against DDR and you shouldn't underestimate Canon, she's been more involved and it's not like you need to have deep understanding of american politics to know what Trump stands for.

    "To be honest, we should be doing this for western producers as well. . To only condemn Japanese producers, VPs, etc makes the community look a tad bit racist(I am not saying it is, I am saying it makes it look that way) because we can hide behind a language barrier, and say whatever we wish about Japanese producers, meanwhile we cannot say a thing about Western ones because they can read English and sometimes search themselves"

    I agree but that doesn't take away from Canon's actions and is sidetracking.

    "DDR are completely able to be separated from their VPs."

    No because keeping DDR relevant keeps the vps in return relevant, they will benefit from you using their vbs whether you like it or not as it's what keeps their status.

    "Many films, animes, shows, etc, have been made by horrible people, you probably have a few that you like that were made by these people. Not just creators, but people who have helped with animation, or storyboarding, camera work, etc. No work is clean" & "Avanna is still getting use despite her artist being E/mpa/th/p, the same with the Quadimension girls at ATDAN. Whether you personally like it or not, people are different and are not going to agree to the same thing, and will separate creators from creations(or in the art case, their contributors). "

    I am not suggesting to drop every questionable piece of media, I never suggested such black & white scenario. What I am stating is that people should be critical and responsible about the media they consume and sometimes dropping it is part of that responsibility, not always.

    I even said it here: "To say it's complicated matter whether and when to separate them, that's stance I agree with"

    "The only connection is Canon helped with Ritsu's creation, a connection that can easily be severed"

    That's something you can only say on your behalf.

    there appears to be bug that formats my post like this? apologies!

    well i finally tried tuning in V4!!! akdjsjfjd it's SO BAD lol but it was kinda fun coming back to after a few years. UTAU still feels a lot better to me but UTAU doesn't have queens like Luka or Avanna :avanna_lili::luka_lili:

    I am most likely just very lucky that I have not encountered issues with Luka:luka_rylitah:I think there are other V5 users that have reported having trouble using her Japanese VBs I believe.
    I find it easier to tune in then tuning with V4, I am actually a little worried to use my V2s because V4's tuning scares me:clara_ani_lili: Others feel otherwise however, so I would not worry too much about which one will be better for you. Perhaps V4 will be better for tuning for you.
    I really wish they would give out a trial for V5. I think it would help a lot of people see if it is what they want, both people in the fandom and people who want a vocal synth for their songs, but are not into the technology per se.

    edit: I sounded a bit rude somehow. I have not gotten a lot of sleep, so I did not proofread. My apologies.

    oh i didn't think you sounded rude at all!!! and yeah if V5 had a trial it'd be very helpful for me to decide if i liked the flow of the whole thing or not. but for now V4 isn't bad and i like it's simplicity compared to UTAU, so i'm okay in the meantime using it. i don't use vocaloid very much at all anymore up until recently, so i'm very hesitant on buying anything. UTAU's my main engine :)

    at like 19 seconds in, that's a off sort of sound with the voice.
    1:12 - it gets a bit out of hand there too.
    1:30 - gets a bit too weird here for a sec.
    1:39 - gets a tad weird for a second too.
    2:14 - [No comment]
    2:20 - the singer sounds like they need water, lasts a bit longer than usual resurfacing a couple seconds after ;-;
    not sure if you intended any of that.. but it's very brief most of the time, but at like, 2:20 i lightly cringed because that didn't sound the best.. :kyo_lili:if you had another go at it, fixing up the voice it could sound better! great work anyways!

    @Kitterr Thanks so much for this!! Yup, the timestamps you marked were all my attempts at making a growl / scream. I love the way others have done it but trying to mimic screams in UTAU is one wild ride @_@. I think I overdid it a bit in the end too, I'll give it a clean-up.

    @Krin i'm excited to hear a cleaned up version though!! with a better growl/scream it could sound really good! maybe look up some tutorials if you're having a bad time :clara_ani_lili:

    my current vocal synth struggles involve wanting to use avanna and luka again but utterly hate using my rickety ol' v4 engine

    No, I don't exactly feel comfortable with my antivirus deleting things related to Synth V........

    Woah, well it's good to know my antivirus isn't the only one that loves to delete randome files. (And yeah it's McAfee that did this, I don't know too much abt antiviruses but as long as I'm under my parent's roof I'm gonna have to live with it. A lot of times I have to turn it off in order to download voicebanks like ??? No.)

    @M1023 Whaaat!?!? That's stupid unlucky >:(

    What is up with other peoples' antiviruses randomly deleting files? I've used AVG in the past and right now I'm using Kaspersky, and I've never run into that problem in all the years I've had my own computer.

    well um, sorry i took such a dramatically long break buuuut i think i'm back to stay now!!!! hopefully for a long while at least. i was beginning to miss all of you on vvn 🥺 and i'm also doing A LOT better mentally than i was a month ago <3

    ALSO IMA BIRTHDAY QUEEN TODAY :chika_ani_lili: :chika_ani_lili: :chika_ani_lili: :chika_ani_lili:

    so i'm taking a short mental health break from here/social media! not for too long i don't think, just need a break @_@
    so i've been thinking it might be best for me/my mental well being to sort of unplug from things like social media for a bit at least for a few days. i've already started taking things slower on other platforms, and at least this forum isn't "problematic??" for me in any way but maybe it'll help if i unplugged here too for a short time. (also if anyone wanted to contact me i still always get emails when i get @-ed in posts/PMs so i'm not exactly unplugging from here, more just quieting down a bit. i like to think i'd still wanna be contacted during my little hiatus lol)

    basically i've just been a big mess mentally for a while and just seem to be spiralling more every day due to recent issues in my personal life. I don't know if unplugging is the right choice or if it'll leave me feeling more disconnected, but i do feel i need a break to have one less thing to stress about. hopefully about a week's break will give me time to process and sort things out!! <3

    hope this isn't coming off as dramatic your girl is just a bit wordy :clara_ani_lili: and v tired

    Unplugging is an excellent idea! I'll be praying for your safety and well-being; in the meantime, drink plenty of water, eat yummy food, treat yourself often, take naps, just indulge in excessive self-care and love! We love you! :akasakiminato_lili:

    Even a few days of unplugging can help tremendously. I hope it goes well for you. :yanhe_lili:
    I also recommend leaving or muting vocatwt if you can if you're on twitter. I browse there rarely and it's very chaotic. Even if I'm not participating in it, it actually makes me nervous just browsing, I have no idea why. I actually joined this forum because it's the most chill place to talk about vocal synths, and didn't just focus on the characters like every other site, but also had discussions about the software itself.
    (not that talking about the characters is bad, it's very fun, but some places, like the vocaloid reddit, are just nothing but fanart.)
